The operations being brought together are Bonfiglioli’s Discrete Manufacturing & Process Industries business, which focuses on light and heavy-duty industrial applications, and its Mobility & Wind Industries business, which focuses on the wind, construction, agriculture, electromobility and marine machinery sectors. The company’s sales and service department is also being integrated into the new facility.
This new site will combine assembly operations with product storage, allowing the company to serve its markets more efficiently. It will employ 23 people, including external and internal sales, accounting, assembly and warehouse personnel. Bonfiglioli’s UK revenue in 2019 was around £34m.
