Kiefel, a market leading company for thermoforming and joining technology and member of the Brückner Group, announces a structural reorientation and an accompanying consolidation of its sites.

Future focus

 

In the future, Kiefel will focus increasingly in the packaging area on new standardized automation solutions and leave the volatile special automation business.

 

Furthermore, the specific skills of the respective sites of the global production network of Kiefel and its parent company, the Brückner Group, should be used more effectively in the future.

 

Sites consolidation

 

To respond to Kiefel’s future business focus, its production unit for tool manufacturing for fiber and tilting machines as well as automation of thermoforming machines at the Micheldorf site in Austria will be integrated into other sites.

 

Kiefel will therefore close the Micheldorf site with its approximately 130 employees. Existing orders will still be fully completed in Micheldorf. The accompanying reduction in staff will take place progressively and be completed at the latest by the end of 2025.

 

As a result of the company's global production optimization, the Sprang-Capelle site in the Netherlands will be strengthened as the center of excellence for tool manufacturing. The same applies to the head office in Freilassing, Bavaria for the area of automation.

 

“In order to remain continuously competitive, we must make better use of the strengths of our respective production sites for our customers locally. The consolidation of technologies and skills will make it possible for us to offer our customers optimized and innovative solutions,” said Matt Sieverding, CEO of Kiefel.
