TIANJIN, Dec. 9 (Xinhua) — The largest ever single shipment of Airbus aircraft components arrived at the port of Tianjin, north China, on Tuesday, marking a major milestone in logistics development and will help boost the European aircraft maker's production capacity in the region.
The cargo, including 12 large aircraft components, arrived aboard the container ship OOCL Denmark. The ship departed from Hamburg, Germany, and docked at the Pacific International Container Terminal in Tianjin Port on Tuesday morning.
This delivery is intended to support Airbus's recent expansion of its production capacity in Tianjin, one of the company's key global manufacturing hubs. In October of this year, the company launched its second final assembly line for the A320 family of aircraft in Tianjin, marking its second in China and the entire Asian continent.
To ensure the safe and smooth handling of the record-breaking cargo, the Dongjiang Border Inspection Station at Tianjin Port expedited customs procedures, including pre-clearance, ensuring a zero-waiting period for the arriving vessel.
Tianjin currently houses two of the world's 10 A320 final assembly lines. The combined production capacity of the assembly lines in the Chinese metropolis will now account for 20 percent of the company's global capacity.
