SWEP EMEA Production expansion takes next big step

SWEP have taken the first dig in the 3rd phase of major expansion plans, this time in the Košice plant in Slovakia, where expansion plans will add another 3000 sqm to a rapidly growing amount of production space. 

During summer 2020, new production equipment was installed in Landskrona, Sweden and all production lines were optimized. In addition to the new production area, 500 sqm of new office space was also constructed.

On April 27th, 2021, approximately 16 months after the first EMEA expansion was started in Landskrona, Sweden, SWEP has started their expansion in Košice, Slovakia. The Košice expansion is led by General Manager Robert Dzurilla, Quality Manager Jana Sallaiova and Engineering Manager Stanislav Kodus.

"We all face that renewable energy sources and more efficient energy usage are absolute musts. SWEP’s heat exchanger technology plays a vital role in the conversion from old non-sustainable sources and inefficient technologies. By expanding our production in EMEA through additional capacity equipment, such as press lines, furnaces and automation, we will significantly increase our abilities to serve the market. And with an optimized operational flow, we are becoming more flexible towards demands and less vulnerable to unpredicted events.We are here to grow with our customers."
