Praxis Opens New Facility in Qingdao to Support Maritime Growth in China

Praxis Automation is proud to announce the official opening of our new facility in Qingdao, China, a major milestone in our ongoing global expansion. The launch was marked by a festive Chinese opening ceremony, attended by local partners and our Managing Director, Benjamin van Dam, who represented the company on this special occasion.

At the heart of this new venture is David Xiao, who has been part of the Praxis team for over a decade. As manager of Praxis (Qingdao) Automation Technology, David has played a key role in building our presence in China and helping strengthen relationships with local shipyards and operators.

The new facility will focus on the production of our advanced E-Propulsion systems, built to the highest international standards. These electric propulsion solutions are designed to meet the growing demand for cleaner, smarter, and more efficient marine power, supporting the industry’s transition to sustainable operations.

With this step, Praxis strengthens its ability to serve both the Chinese and international maritime industries with locally produced, future-ready technology. Congratulations to David and the entire Qingdao team. We look forward to growing together and delivering innovative automation and propulsion solutions worldwide.
