This opening reflects RH Aero’s strategic goal of strengthening its presence in key markets and ensuring that customers benefit from the combined expertise and capabilities of two trusted names in aviation tooling and ground support equipment.
“This marks an important moment for RH Aero Systems,” said Anthony Turner, President of RH Aero. “It is the first service station we are opening under the unified RH Aero brand. By bringing together the strengths of Rhinestahl and HYDRO Systems, we’re building a solid foundation for serving the region’s aviation sector with dedication and care.”
A Continuation of Longstanding Engagement in China
The opening of the Beijing location coincides with a milestone: HYDRO China’s 25th anniversary. Since its founding in 2000, HYDRO has supported the Chinese aviation market with a wide range of ground support equipment, maintenance tooling, and tailored services. With the transition to RH Aero, this legacy is being preserved and further developed through deeper integration and increased service capabilities.
“It is truly inspiring to see how far we have come,” said Martin Dürr, EVP Commercial and Managing Director. “We view this expansion not as a conclusion, but as a continuation of our long-term engagement in China—one that is based on trust, technical excellence, and shared goals.”
During the opening ceremony, Martin Dürr took a moment to honor Mr. Li Zhenxian, General Manager EFK Aviation Technology (Beijing) Ltd. who has been a steadfast force behind HYDRO’s growth in China over the past two decades.
“It’s no surprise he has earned the affectionate nickname ‘Mr. HYDRO China’—a recognition of his long-standing commitment to our mission here.”
Building on Global Experience, Driven by Local Leadership
To lead its operations in China, RH Aero has appointed Mr. Li Zhimin as General Manager of RH Aero China. His appointment reflects the company’s emphasis on empowering local teams and aligning closely with customer needs in the region.
Guided by a Long-Term Vision
The new Beijing service center operates under the guiding principle: “Global Reach. Dedicated to China.” This reflects RH Aero’s intention to support the region not only with equipment, but also through investments in sustainability, innovation, and talent development.
The facility enhances RH Aero’s ability to offer regional service, faster response times, and tailored customer support, positioning the company to play an active role in the continued development of China’s aviation infrastructure.
A Reliable Partner Moving Forward
With the official opening of the HYDRO Systems (Beijing) Co. LTD Service Center BJ, RH Aero underscores its long-standing commitment to the Chinese market. More than a rebranding, this development represents a strategic evolution—rooted in experience, built on customer relationships, and focused on the future.
