Bock pledges 10,000 Euro for earthquake victims in China

On June 20 this year, Klaus Öchsner, Sales Manager for Mobile Applications at Bock Kältemaschinen GmbH presented the “Youth Development Fund” of the Zhejiang Province with a cheque for 10,000 Euro.

“As soon as our subsidiary Bock China told us of the magnitude of the earthquake, the company management gathered and decided to pledge an amount of 10,000 Euro for the victims of this catastrophe“, reports Klaus Öchsner.

This is the kind of commitment with which the Frickenhausen-based family firm has been meeting its social obligation for several years in numerous projects all over the world.

According to the “Youth Development Fund”, the company’s donation will be used to build four classrooms at the “Hope Primary School“. A scheme that will serve to educate 90 pupils and hence contribute something towards the vocational future for these earthquake victims.

Bock has been supplying Chinese customers with coolant compressors used primarily in bus air-conditioning systems since as far back as 1993.

Having established a sales office in Shanghai in 2003, 2006 saw the company commence its own production facilities in Hangzhou, which today boasts an annual production capacity of 20,000 compressors.
