It will have a total of 43 injection machines of tonnages ranging between 160 TN and 1300 TN, with both conventional injection equipment, as well as gas and fabric equipment.

Ford is the first customer to be served by the new Poland plant, with the first products being the Interior pillars set for the new Fiesta and the Interior pillars for the new Focus, as well as several instrument panel components. The new management team has already been contracted and is working in situ.
This is without doubt a new challenge to be faced by the Company as a whole, and one which will reinforce our position in Europe with a view to attracting new projects for the different OEMs with production plants in Europe.
