copyright © 2005 eBearing Inc.
GGB (formerly Glacier Garlock Bearings, a division of EnPro Industries, USA) has opened
an office in Shanghai, China as of March 1, 2005. The office will service customers in
mainland China and Taiwan.
Over the past year, GGB has opened an office in New Delhi and inaugurated a new bearing
plant in Slovakia, with the related closing of two other plants.

GGB is the world's largest manufacturer of prelubricated
and self-lubricating metal-polymer plain bearings, with production facilities in the United
States, Germany, France, Slovakia and Brazil, along with 22 other operating units now in 18 countries.
Its present form was assembled from Garlock Bearings and Glacier Industrial Bearing, which
Goodrich acquired from Dana in May 2001. The combined unit was renamed Glacier Garlock Bearings.
In mid-2002, Goodrich spun off its manufacturing businesses as EnPro Industries; Glacier Garlock Bearings
is the key manufacturing component of EnPro. The business was renamed GGB in early 2004.
Joe Fults, GGB VP of Business Development, said, "China is a very important market for us.
Our customers with a presence there have been asking for the same level of
service that we provide in Europe and the Americas."
