• CRRC has commissioned Knorr-Bremse to equip a total of more than 1,000 metro railcars for major cities in China;
• Further contracts awarded for export from China to e.g. Kazakhstan;
• Success reflects recent strong business of Knorr-Bremse in Asia.

Based on more than three decades of strong in-country presence, including local supply chains and production facilities backed by deep customer understanding, the company has been awarded a number of new projects including projects for international export.

Dr. Nicolas Lange, Member of the Executive Board of Knorr-Bremse AG with global responsibility for the Rail division: “Knorr-Bremse has been a highly reliable partner to the Chinese rail industry for over 30 years. Our latest successes reflect our profound understanding of the needs of our customers in China. These new projects in the metro rail segment show that even in challenging times, we can benefit from the dynamic development of China’s rail industry.”

New projects for China’s megacities

Over the last quarter, Knorr-Bremse has been awarded contracts to equip trains for multiple metro operators by CRRC (crrcgc.cc), the world’s largest train manufacturer. As a result, Knorr-Bremse will fit complete braking systems including electropneumatic brake control systems, bogie equipment and actuators to metro fleets destined for the cities of Guangzhou (336 railcars) and Fuzhou (192 railcars), as well as Wuhan, Shenzhen and Ningbo. Knorr-Bremse will supply technologies for a total of around 150 trains over several years, representing a combined order volume in the mid double-digit million-euro range.

Production hub for export markets

Apart from the domestic market, China is an increasingly attractive source of export business for Knorr-Bremse. Among other projects, the company was recently awarded contracts to equip more than 100 CRRC locomotives destined for Kazakhstan with braking systems, customized and produced in Suzhou and Knorr-Bremse Nankou Air Supply Unit (Beijing) Co., Ltd. (JV), Knorr-Bremse’s Joint Venture with CRRC in Nankou. Similarly, Knorr-Bremse is outfitting new light rail vehicles (LRVs) for export to the Kazakh capital Astana and Belo Horizonte in Brazil with braking systems.

There are several reasons for China’s growing appeal as an export hub. Knorr-Bremse works very closely with Chinese train manufacturers, who are increasingly supplying trains to markets around the world, where Knorr-Bremse has proven experience and an existing service network. Besides, Knorr-Bremse is optimizing its global organization as part of the company’s strategic program, BOOST. This includes transforming the company’s primary plants in Suzhou and Palwal (India) into larger manufacturing hubs capable of supplying products to customers in export markets faster, more flexibly and more efficiently than ever before.
