Erema ends 2014/15 business year with a result of 21% increase in turnover
Erema GesmbH, headquartered in Ansfelden, Austria, has achieved a record turnover figure of EUR 115mill. for the 2014/15 fiscal year. This corresponds to a 21% and EUR 20mill. plus in turnover compared to the previous year. The turnover of the Erema Group as a whole with 480 employees in total (Erema GesmbH, Pure Loop GesmbH and 3S GesmbH) rose to EUR 130mill.
Technology innovation Intarema
This success is supported by the new Intarema plant generation with 245 recycling systems sold at the location in Ansfelden since the system was launched 18 months ago. "Thanks to Counter Current technology, Intarema is exceptionally flexible and productive," explains Hackl, "the system adapts in an optimum way to the broad spectrum of recycling applications which means that demand is constantly high."
Further plans for growth
Erema announced its continuing expansion at the beginning of the year with the foundation of the new sister company Pure Loop GesmbH. In terms of strategy, Pure Loop as the sister company of EREMA pursues the clear positioning in the market and further development of the shredder-extruder technology while Erema as a group intensifies its range of services in the field of in-house recycling.
The next expansion is following: Erema North America, Inc., a subsidiary of Erema GesmbH, is more than doubling the size of its trial centre due to high demand – especially in the post consumer recycling sector. The trial centre at the company’s head office in Ipswich, Massachusetts, will be extended to 2,400m² in total featuring four recycling systems for test runs. The expansion is scheduled for completion in late summer 2015.
Sister company 3S has also expanded in the 2014/15 financial year. The new premises in Wartberg im Mürztal in Styria have been extended by 4,000 m² to a total of 7,000m² production space and the number of employees has risen from 60 to 68 compared to the previous financial year.
