The HARTING Technology Group has opened a production facility near the Polish city of Bydgoszcz, where subsidiary HARTING Customised Solutions (HCS) is now manufacturing tailor-made solutions in its 500 sqm facility.
The products and solutions are primarily intended for mechanical and plant engineering.
The manufacturing facility was officially opened by CEO Philip Harting and Andreas Conrad, operations director; Christian Schumacher, managing director of HARTING Customised Solutions (HCS); and Mariusz Matejczyk, managing director of HARTING Polska.
"This step strengthens our global presence and positions us even closer to our customers," Harting said.
HARTING has been represented in Poland since September 2007.
The opening of the production facility is seen as the next logical step. According to Harting, Poland has made excellent economic progress that serves as a model for other regions in Europe. The unemployment rate is low compared to other countries, as is the inflation rate, he said, adding that economic growth is robust and public debt is declining. "These numbers speak for themselves and have made it easy for us to reach the decision to manufacture in this country."
