Mould & Matic expanding in Micheldorf
Mould & Matic Solutions GmbH, a specialist in tool and plant engineering for the packaging industry, is keeping abreast with the global success of the Kiefel Group and on May 2, 2018, launched the expansion of the site in Micheldorf. Completion is scheduled for May 2019.
Generously proportioned assembly halls for the construction and commissioning of plastics processing machines are being built on a total area of approx. 3,355 sq.m. Additionally, a new customer center and office space for engineering, international sales and project management will be built and the technology center will be expanded.
A great deal of importance was placed on an optimal balance of sustainability, energy efficiency and maximum flexibility for the technical building equipment. Therefore, for example, compressed air, cooling water and electricity are supplied through floor channels of the facilities.
Mould & Matic has belonged to Kiefel GmbH, Freilassing, since 2016. The newly created assembly areas and the focus on the cup and bottle market segment technologies therefore once again reflect the consistent growth and competence of the automation technology and tool specialists in cooperation with Kiefel as Kiefel Packaging.
The core competencies of the company include the development and production of thermoforming and injection moulding tools as well as automation solutions for the production of plastic packaging, which are used not only in the food and cosmetics, but also in the pharmaceutical and medical industries.
Mould & Matic Solutions GmbH has 155 employees in Micheldorf, including 22 apprentices. The expansion allows the number of employees to be increased to 250 over the next few years.
