Gaishi Technology starts up USD 29.84m (CNY 200m) aseptic-cap factory in Xianning
Gaishi Technology (Xianning) has begun operations at a new factory in Xianning, Hubei, built around its Xianlegai separated-cap and aseptic cold-fill line for freeze-dried tea, coffee and probiotic drinks. The plant represents a total investment of CNY 200m (USD 29.84m), with a planned annual capacity of 120 million bottles. First-year output value is expected to reach CNY 20m, rising to CNY 360m once fully ramped.
Why this mattersAdds 120 million bottles a year of separated-cap capacity in China, industrialising a format that keeps freeze-dried actives apart from liquid until opening.
