Hager Group celebrates 30 years in Poland with grand factory inauguration at Bieruń
A new Hager Group factory in the Silesian town of Bieruń, Poland, is supporting our growing business. This €50 million investment enables Hager Group to increase the circuit-breaker production capacity, further develop the product portfolio and improve availabilities on the market. The new factory will employ 1000 people and is the third production plant in Poland after Kornik and Tychy.
"This investment further strengthens our market position in Poland, which we have built over 30 years and is an important milestone for our further growth in Europe. With the new factory, Poland is among the key locations for production plants at Hager Group" Daniel Hager, CEO of Hager Group says.
Jacek Lubecki, President of Hager Group in Poland adds: “With the new factory we increase our production capacity and ensure that the availability of our solutions matches future demand. I am pleased to observe that we continue to improve and grow in Poland both in terms of market development and production.” Poland currently ranks as the third-largest country in terms of Hager Group employees, following behind France and Germany.
The new factory, located about 30 minutes' drive from the centre of Katowice, has been developed to a high standard of sustainable construction and the building has been built to BREEAM Excellent standard. It boasts an integrated quality, environmental and occupational health and safety management system according to ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001. Energy requirements will be partly covered by photovoltaic panels installed on the roof.
The inauguration ceremony, held on September 19th, was a gala event attended by several hundred customers, business partners as well as esteemed representatives of local and regional authorities. The occasion marked not only the opening of the new manufacturing facility but also the celebration of a 30-year journey of success in Poland.
This inauguration is not only a significant milestone for Hager Group in Poland but also a testament to the company's ambition to shape the electrical world of tomorrow.
