In the latest episode of our sponsored series In the Spotlight, Jordan O’Brien, Managing Editor of Electrical Review and Data Centre Review, speaks with Yunshui Chen, founder and CEO of AirSys Group. We look at the company’s next phase of growth — and why its new global headquarters in Woodruff, South Carolina, represents more than just additional manufacturing capacity.
During this short interview, Yunshui details why AirSys sees North America, and the US in particular, as a major focus for the decades ahead. That focus comes partly in response to geopolitical pressures that have influenced the company’s decision to manufacture more of its products in the US, rather than relying as heavily on shipping from Asia.
For AirSys’ customers, however, the added benefit of local manufacturing is quicker delivery and the avoidance of tariffs — something that is becoming increasingly important given the current growth trajectory of the data centre market, especially in the US.
But it’s not just about avoiding tariffs and shortening delivery times. Yunshui also explores how the new facility enables more advanced manufacturing, including large-scale 3D printing, which could help AirSys build a more resilient and efficient supply chain.de the usual imperatives around power and network resilience.
