Cimcorp doubles production

Finnish automation company Cimcorp is expanding its production facilities to meet growing demand.

Construction work for the new building in Ulvila, Finland, has now been completed and furnishing of the new premises is currently underway. The expansion gives it 5,700 sq m of additional factory space and another 2,200 sq m of offices.

This will enable it to double its production capacity.

Chief executive Masatoshi Wakabayashi said: “The building expansion will provide us with the much-needed space to continue expanding our product lines and solutions – which are in high demand – to better serve our customers with their intralogistics challenges. Sales are continuing to rise; in fact, we received our largest ever order in the intralogistics market – worth over 120 million euros – from the Spanish grocery giant, Mercadona, this spring.”
