Hexis discloses investment plan up to 2020

by FESPA | 14/09/2017

World Wrap Masters sponsor Hexis has committed €17 million to support its ongoing five-year strategic plan up to 2020.

The investments simultaneously covers the acquisition of lands - including a plot next to the head office in Frontignan - the modernisation of production tools and the addition of a new manufacturing line.

In the Hexis subsidiaries located in Spain, West Indies and Scandinavia, new lands will allow the construction of administration, logistics and training buildings. These premises will strengthen the subsidiaries’ independence, enhance responsiveness and customer service.

In a second factory based in Hagetmau, the construction and launch in 2018 of a new casting line in a controlled environment will significantly increase the production capacity for special and technical product ranges.

This new equipment will consequently free up production capacities in the Frontignan factory. In addition, new peripheral equipment such as cutting and packaging lines are currently being installed, making the Hagetmau factory 100% autonomous.

Two additional VOC processing units will be coupled with the current production equipment in Frontignan and Hagetmau. They will take care of the environmental treatment of the new production capacities and will secure production times. These new thermal oxidizers will increase the development capacity of both production sites of the group.

As FESPA headline sponsors for the World Wrap Masters competition, Hexis will be hosting their battle live at FESPA Mexico 2017, taking place from 21-23 September at the Centro Citibanamex in Mexico City.

Become the best installer of “FESPA Mexico” and win your place for the Super Final at FESPA 2018 global print expo in Berlin (May 15th to 18th). You will compete against the best installers of the world and get a chance to win your ticket for the largest annual print show in Europe.
