ABOUT THE MUSEUM

About the Museum

To mark FEMCO’s 70 years and commemorate our late Chairman, Mr. C. M. Chuang, we founded the FEMCO Machinery Memorial Museum to trace our growth from a start-up to a multinational enterprise.

The building dates from 1969 and was originally a machining and assembly hall. Echoing how Mr. Chuang “started” FEMCO with a yo-yo in 1949 and how the company has since grown through “turning”, “driving” and “pulsing”, the museum is divided into two areas.

歷史文物區

Historical Relics Area

Light, continuous white exhibition walls wind through the solid 60-year-old factory space, telling the story of the company’s development in a calm yet lively way.

Industry Exhibition Area

In a hall with clear axes and a regular roof-truss grid, machines are repositioned on a shifted grid to express our culture of breakthrough and innovation.

Carrying on Mr. Chuang’s humanistic legacy, the 70th-anniversary museum aims to become a “Hall of Industrial Art” and an educational space that inspires gratitude and corporate humanism.

FEMCO is not just an ordinary enterprise,
but a calling to catch up with the world’s best.
