KraussMaffei's headquarters move, the last and largest of four relocation projects, has been successfully completed. Since 2018, the 185-year-old company has invested about 200 million euros in four new plants in Germany and China.
After almost 90 years, the traditionally Munich-based company moved its headquarters from Allach to Parsdorf. Covering 156,000 square meters, the new site brings together Corporate Headquarters, Injection Molding, Reaction Process Machinery, Additive Manufacturing, and Mechanical Production. Automation and the Spare Parts Warehouse, previously located in Schwaig and Plauen, will also be completely integrated into the new plant in the coming months. Like the other three new sites, Parsdorf runs as a Smart Factory, which uses sustainable modern building technology.
The new Parsdorf site boasts three production halls, a main administration building, four office and social buildings, two parking garages, a canteen, a cafeteria and a 15,000-square-meter Customer Experience Center.
The entire plant is designed to increase efficiency and the halls enable continuous production flow. New machines speed up processes. Shorter distances and new, modern warehouses simplify logistics. A modern, open-office approach also enables better communication between different areas. Departments are arranged in relation to one another in accordance with workflows.
