Emtelle completes land purchase
to expand facilities
Emtelle, a global manufacturer of preconnectorised,
blown fibre cable and
ducted network solutions, announced
it has acquired 16,000m 2 of land located
adjacent to its manufacturing plant in
Erfurt, Germany.
The news follows the manufacturer’s recent
investment in its production capabilities
with the purchase of two new extrusion lines
at the Erfurt manufacturing facility. This
latest investment from Emtelle allows for
further options of increased manufacturing
capacity, increased stock capabilities while
expanding product testing and customer
training facilities.
These developments will ultimately
strengthen the company’s full offering and
enable Emtelle to better serve the global
growing demand.
With manufacturing facilities in Germany,
Denmark and Scotland, Emtelle is already
well placed to supply reliable, high-quality
fibre and ducted network solutions to over
100 countries across the globe. The newland
acquisition further emphasises this and
enhances the focus that Emtelle holds on
continuously improving service to customers
both in the German and global markets.
Emtelle Group CEO, Tony Rodgers,
commented: “As leaders in our field, it
is important that we have the space to
grow. Acquiring this land means we can
do just that.
“The German market is a growing market
for us, so it is imperative we continue to
invest and expand our capabilities at our
Erfurt factory.
“This additional land purchase allows us to
enhance our facilities, so we remain at the
forefront of the FTTX industry."
Since its inception, Emtelle has developed
innovative blown fibre and ducted network
solutions that allow for a more simple,
efficient installation with minimal disruption,
to effectively connect premises worldwide.
This land acquisition follows the progression
from Emtelle’s recent investment of more
than €30 million in its European factories
from 2017 when the acquisition of Moore
GmbH took place. •
AS LEADERS IN
OUR FIELD, IT IS
IMPORTANT THAT
WE HAVE THE
SPACE TO GROW.
ACQUIRING THIS
LAND MEANS WE
CAN DO JUST THAT.
