EMKA France production site increases to 4,800 m2

“This means that the construction work is right on schedule”, reports Andreas Prellwitz, member of the EMKA France Management Board. Previously, EMKA France had workspaces covering approximately 2,400 m2. The new building in the immediate vicinity of the existing site will now expand this area to 4,800 m2, furthermore, a showroom will be added. The relocation of the production departments began in July. The offices will follow in late summer. The opening ceremony is planned for the end of the year.

The production site in Henriville primarily manufactures locks and locking systems for switch cabinets, safety boxes, foot/storage lockers, and letterboxes. The product range also includes protective boxes for vehicle batteries, streetlamps and food vending machines. Prior to the expansion, the factory produced more than 500,000 locks of different designs per month, amounting to an annual output of up to 10 million locks. Close to 90 per cent of the products are supplied to the EMKA Group.
