GMI: a packaging assembly plant for car parts logistics

 

AUTECHAUX / BAUME-LES-DAMES, 25 November 2002– The Maillard Industrie Group, a specialist in the design, development and product engineering of specific packaging for the supply chain between OEMs and car manufacturers, has just signed for a new packaging assembly plant in the Autechaux industrial estate in Baume-les-Dames, France.

 

The plant boasts a surface area of 2 500 m2 and is intended to meet the growing demand from the European motor industry for custom-designed mechanically-welded packaging incorporating thermoformed and rotationally-moulded fittings, and accessories in polyurethane elastomers made in the group's other plants. The assembly plant will be operational in May 2002.

 

The investment amounts to 1, 3 million Euros and will eventually create 32 jobs.

(design office technicians, business managers, administrative staff, welders and operators etc.)
