The Charlotte Chamber has announced the new arrival of an international manufacturer Getzner Werkstoffe GmbH in the market.

Getzner, an Austrian company, deals in the manufacturing of systems for vibration isolation and elastic products and has been in the business since 1975. The company has commenced with its first subsidiary in the U. S. with the name of Getzner USA Inc. in the Water Oak Building in Charlotte.

At present, the company has taken a 1,000 sq. ft place on lease for its sales and distribution purposes. The company aims to move to a bigger place after the business grows in the U. S. market. Right now, a team of four employees will serve the company in Charlotte; more people are expected to be hired in the course of next few years.

"North America is a promising market. Charlotte itself is commercially attractive with a good infrastructure and many potential clients close by," said Andreas Denk, President of Getzner USA. The company has chosen Charlotte as its business centre due to its central location. The company runs its several branches in China, India, Jordan and Japan. It has partnered with companies in as many as 35 countries for the distribution of its products.

Getzner is one of the leading companies manufacturing vibration isolation in industrial, railway and construction applications.
