GMAX Industrial Company, a medical supplies manufacturer headquartered in Hopewell, New York, and with production operations in China, has decided to establish its manufacturing base in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. This move is seen as a strategic initiative to bring manufacturing back to the United States.

Currently, GMAX Industrial Company is selecting a site in the region, planning to establish a production, warehousing, and distribution center. It is reported that the project will create 42 new jobs and a total investment of 15 million dollars over the next five years.

The business environment is favorable, and the labor force has outstanding skills.

Eric Liu, the President and CEO of GMAX, stated: "In evaluating the site selection for our production base in the United States, Winston-Salem stood out due to its well-developed logistics infrastructure, cost-effective business environment, and high-quality workforce. The region brings together the right talent and resources to support our advanced manufacturing processes, making it an ideal place for business development."

Eric Liu also mentioned in a press release from North Carolina Governor Josh Stein's office: "In the process of expanding domestic production capacity in the United States, we have always focused on delivering high-quality, reliable medical products more quickly, more controllably, and more flexibly. By investing in domestic production, we can not only strengthen the supply chain but also create jobs in the U.S. and enhance the resilience of the healthcare system."

As a certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE), GMAX Company's products include a variety of medical plastic products (for bedside use), medical sponges, surgical gowns, surgical drapes, and trays for original equipment manufacturers (OEM). Its L'Ange brand baby products are made from six-layer and nine-layer cotton yarn using the "bubble weaving" process, all supplied in medical-grade packaging.

Automated production line configuration

GMAX Company will produce a variety of critical medical products at its new factory in Winston-Salem, including surgical towels, gauze, surgical drapes, surgical gowns, and disposable syringes. The new factory will be equipped with highly automated production lines, thus requiring engineering technical talent and skilled production personnel. Additionally, positions will be set up for equipment maintenance, warehousing, quality control, and other roles, with an average annual salary of $63,810.

GMAX Industrial Company has received a performance grant of $75,000 from the "North Carolina Integrated Fund." The project has received support from multiple parties, including the North Carolina Economic Development Partnership, the North Carolina Department of Commerce, the North Carolina General Assembly, the North Carolina Community College System, Forsyth Technical Community College, Forsyth County, the City of Winston-Salem, and Greater Winston-Salem, Inc.
