Two new plants opened in China by Seeber Rochling Automotive and its Chinese partner may export products to the West.

The German auto plastics supplier has just launched joint ventures to supply Volkswagen and Ford operations in China.

"We want to export," said Georg Duffner, president and CEO of the Rochling Group. "But for now the main target is to produce for the China market."

The privately held Rochling Group of Mannheim, Germany, owns Seeber Rochling Automotive.
