Japanese manufacturer SUS Corporation has opened a U.S. headquarters in Elk Grove Village, IL. The move allows the manufacturer of environmentally friendly equipment to better serve its customers in the U.S., Canada and Mexico.

“Last year we came to the United States to introduce one of our most exciting and popular products, the GreenFrame Series. We received such a promising response that we felt it was time to establish a larger presence in the U.S. to better meet the needs of our growing customer base,” said Yasuo Ishida, president of SUS Corporation.

The company expected to generate more than $500,000 in revenue during its first year in the U.S.

SUS Corporation specializes in developing manufacturing equipment composed of aluminum and primarily used by automotive and airline manufacturers.
