Schreiner Group continues to be headed for growth, now moving into a new production facility in Dorfen near Erding, Germany. Karl Haeusgen and Wolfgang Sochor, members of the executive board of HAWE Hydraulik SE, the former owner of the premises, handed over the keys to CEO Roland Schreiner. The move into the facility, configuration of the machinery and respective customer audits at the new plant will take place over the course of 2018.
In keeping with its maxim of “continuity and new departures,” Schreiner Group is not only enlarging its international footprint but continuing to grow in Germany as well. In parallel to its ongoing extension of the facilities at its Oberschleissheim headquarters, the company is adding a site in Bavaria by taking over the former HAWE plant.
Production operations that are fully focused on “operational excellence” will take center stage at the new site.
“Operational excellence means the continuous and dynamic optimization of all processes and structures combined with the objective of enhancing cost efficiencies through standardization,” said Schreiner. “Our overarching business strategy is based on the principle of customer intimacy. We define ourselves as a strategic partner and are committed to comprehensively satisfying our customers’ requirements in every respect—from the delivery of cost-efficient standard products through to innovative, custom-developed high-tech solutions centered on the integration of RFID, printed electronics and complex security technologies into labels, with line manufacturing of most standard products planned to take place at the new Dorfen site in the future.”
With a lot size of 12,000 square meters, its transportation infrastructure including a connection to A94 (from 2019 on) and proximity to the airport, Dorfen is an ideal manufacturing location for Schreiner Group.
“We expect that only minor conversions will be necessary in Dorfen. Detailed site planning, including the structure of the workforce, the machinery and the actual production launch date, is currently in progress, said Schreiner.
