Phase I is scheduled to be completed and put into operation in 2026, with capacity expansion planned for 2028 to establish a comprehensive production layout.
During the visit, Shimoda outlined the company's development journey and project roadmap. He praised Wuxi's strong industrial foundation, strategic location, and favorable policies, highlighting the professionalism and efficiency of local services since the project's initiation.
