Having acquired automation specialist Dematic, the KION Group is expanding its production capacity with a new plant in the Czech Republic. The existing KION site in Stříbro is to be extended to include a factory for automated conveyor systems, which will cover an area of 23,000 m2. The €7 million factory should be completed in the fourth quarter of 2017 and is expected to employ around 200 people.

These modular components can be combined in different ways to offer a wide range of functionality and can be tailored exactly to the particular needs of customers.
