Apart from employees, qualified industrial specialists are also being sought. “I am very pleased that such a strong partner in our region will not only create new jobs – also for other companies and service providers – but will also cooperate closely with our schools and provide career opportunities to graduates”, said David Šimek, Mayor of Svitavy. Production in the new plant in Svitavy The majority of investments has gone to new machinery, which has been put into operation both in the existing production plant in Lanškroun and in particular in the new plant in Svitavy. “18.5 million euros alone have been invested in setting up the new production building in Svitavy.

We will be producing an additional 230,000 parts for three global automobile manufacturers this year”, Marián Macháček stated. The thermal management module controls the engine temperature precisely and in an energy-efficient manner and enables the ideal temperature window for engine and transmission to be reached rapidly. This is the key for reducing fuel consumption, and in turn for reducing CO2 emissions.
