Work is scheduled to begin this month on approximately 60,000m² of ground in the Gliwice business park where the current factory is located. The land was purchased in May for €2.4m.

The total investment of €36m will include around €18m for the construction of a 20,000m² factory, the rest on the purchase of plant and machinery.
