KMF Slovakia invests in assembly facility

KMF Precision Sheet Metal Slovakia has recently invested in a new metal fabrication and product assembly facility.

The new factory allows the European-based manufacturer to expand its capabilities and ensure customers benefit from more efficient product assembly and faster turnaround times.

Located a short distance away from KMF's main sheet metal fabrication site in Trencin, Slovakia, the brand-new unit provides an additional 17,000 square ft of manufacturing space dedicated to product assembly.

The new facility extends fabrication capacity for KMF Slovakia'smain site and allows the installation of a new CNC stud welding machine, not only increasing capacity but also offering a more comprehensive and complex assembly service to customers across Europe.

The investment follows consistent turnover growth for the company over the last 12 months and, besides the recruitment of a new Customer Service Manager, will help drive the firm to meet ambitious growth targets.

The expansion now means the KMF Group employs a combined workforce of over 500 across 242,000 sq ft of manufacturing space and enjoys a growing turnover of £35 million.

Operations Director, Radim Vaculin said: "I do not doubt that KMF's new facility, dedicated to product assembly, will further improve the speed and quality of our product assembly service and provide the opportunity to expand our current fabrication service to include more complex metal product and component assembly."

"I firmly believe that KMF's focus on training, investment and willingness to innovate has helped us to grow the group and individual businesses over the last 12 months."
