German firm 2924 Sennebogen is expanding its manufacturing facilities at its headquarters in Straubing in Bavaria. The firm is extending its production and warehouse areas at the site by around 35,000m². The company is also building a new 6,700m² production shop that will be used for the assembly and painting of large components and for finishing work and quality control. With this investment into the Straubing site located around one hour’s drive to the north of Munich, the company is preparing itself for future projects, and is expanding its capacity for the production of large machines.

To provide sufficient space and increase capacity for future production requirements, the factory premises are being expanded in two construction phases. During the first phase, a paved surface is being built south of the current premises for the technical approval of telescopic cranes and rope excavators and for a new noise metering area. A new and spacious shipping area for machines and components is also part of the project. During the second phase, a new assembly and paint shop for large machines will be built and this will be completed by the end of 2016.
