Vibration control solutions manufacturer Vibracoustic is investing around €4m (US$4.5m) in its Polish Sroda Slaska I plant, where it produces conventional and hydraulic chassis mounts for the automotive industry.
The expansion will create capacity to produce microcellular polyurethane (MCU) components and will allow the establishment of a local prototyping and testing facility which will shorten the development and industrialization process of new components.
Vibracoustic will create a total of 50 new jobs by the end of 2018 at Sroda Slaska I, mainly in the areas of production, maintenance and engineering. The company has been producing chassis mounts at the facility for 19 years, employing over 360 people.
