New Hanon Systems Plant in Pécs

Hanon Systems, one of the world's largest automotive air conditioning suppliers, has set up a new plant in Pécs as part of a greenfield investment. The new manufacturing facility increases production capacity for fluid transport products. The volume of the development is almost EUR 36 million, over 20% of whcih is borne by Hungarian taxpayers through a government decision.

The nearly 22,500-square-meter production hall provides space for automotive air conditioning production lines. The site offers the opportunity for further expansion to address future business needs and currently employs more than 300 employees.

The South Korean corporate giant has a close relationship with Hungary and has been present in the country since 1991. It operates 51 manufacturing plants and 3 innovation centres worldwide, and its products are used by Ford, Audi, Volvo and Renault, among others.

The new production unit in Pécs will accommodate the manufacturing of fluid transport products. Industry 4.0 solutions played a major role during the realization of the investment. The company carries out developments not only here, but also in Rétság and Székesfehérvár.
