Lödige Industries expands production site in Romania

May 24, 2023

Lödige Industries, a leading provider of logistics systems, is significantly expanding its capacities in Brasov, Romania. Plans call for a near doubling of the production area to more than 4,000 square meters. Additional office and sanitary facilities are also being built. Construction has begun at the end of the first quarter of 2023. Production operations in the new building are expected to start as early as the end of this year.

Since 2006, the factory has primarily produced lifting and handling machines such as lifting tables, elevating workstations, truck docks and conveyors, which are installed in air freight terminals, car parking systems and as material handling equipment in projects for the global market.

Lödige Industries currently has more than 100 people in Brasov in production, engineering and sales. As part of the expansion, the company also plans to hire additional personnel to ramp up production in the new building by the end of this year.

"Brasov has developed into an important pillar alongside our plant in Scherfede. Due to increasing orders, the expansion of our capacities is the logical next step and a long-term commitment," emphasizes Luana Costescu-Guran, Managing Director at Lödige Industries in Romania.
