The family-owned Netzsch Group, headquartered in Selb/Bavaria, intends to invest approximately EUR 50 m over the next three years to upgrade its factory in Waldkraiburg/Germany. The investment will enhance the operations of the company’s Netzsch Pumps and Systems unit, which produces pumps and similar solutions for the food industry and other sectors. A new production unit will be built at the Waldkraiburg site as part of this investment programme, integrating the assembly hall and the offices from the company’s existing plant in one centralized location. This means that all Netzsch employees at the Waldkraiburg site will work from the single plant, boosting operational efficiency.

According to the company, further investments of about EUR 50 m will be used for factory expansions in the US, Brazil, China and India. In addition, assembly centres will be added at the company’s production sites in South Africa, Australia, Thailand, Russia, Mexico and Indonesia. Such a project volume is unprecedented for the Netzsch Group and will tie up a significant portion of the group’s financial resources over the upcoming years.
