Teknos Deutschland GmbH has recently completed a strategic review of its production footprint in Germany. The objective of this review was to develop plans to simplify the operational footprint while identifying opportunities to further develop the production and delivery capabilities of Teknos Deutschland GmbH.
As a result of this review, Teknos has decided not to proceed with a new factory in Steinau an der Straße and plans to cease operations in Fulda. After evaluating the existing locations, Teknos determined that the Brüggen site offers more expansion and development options. Therefore, Teknos plans to relocate production from Fulda to the existing Brüggen site and develop its operations in Brüggen.
Today, January 10, 2023, Teknos informed its employees in Germany about the planned relocation of production from Fulda to Brüggen. Approximately 20 jobs in the production, logistics and R&D are affected by these plans. Jobs of employees outside production, logistics and R&D would not be affected. Teknos has now engaged in negotiations with the works council in Fulda.
