Senior opens new French production hub to expand capacity

5th Jun 2024 11:46

(Alliance News) - Senior PLC on Wednesday said its French operating business, Senior Aerospace Ermeto, has opened a new production facility in Fosse, France.

Senior is a Hertfordshire, England-based auto and aircraft components and systems manufacturer.

"The new facility is required to support growth and will expand Ermeto's capacity to manufacture high-pressure fluid conveyance components for European and global aerospace and industrial customers," Senior explained.

It noted that the new facility, which is adjacent to Ermeto's existing factory, has an area of 1,600 metres squared and increases Ermeto's manufacturing capacity by 25%.

The increased capacity will be used to produce industrial valves and high-pressure hydraulic fittings used in aerospace fluid-conveyance systems, the company added.

Chief Executive David Squires said: "We are delighted to mark the opening of this new production facility. This investment in Ermeto's growth will enable Senior to support our aerospace and industrial customers' increasing levels of demand."

Shares in Senior were down 0.4% to 161.00 pence each in London on Wednesday afternoon.
