TRILUX has officially opened a new production and development facility in Świdnik. In order to increase its production capacity and strengthen its presence in the Central and Eastern European markets, the company has invested approximately 32 million euros in the construction of the new production facility. In the initial phase, around 70 people will be employed in production, administration and product development, with the number expected to rise to 250 in the coming months. Most of the jobs will be in production, assembly and logistics.

With the investment in Świdnik, TRILUX has expanded its capabilities in the development and production of energy-efficient, sustainable LED lighting solutions. The new 23,000 square metre facility has a production capacity of up to one million luminaires per year and focuses on the manufacture of lighting products for offices and commercial buildings.

“The new site underlines the strategic importance of Eastern Europe for TRILUX and reflects our long-term commitment to the region. The expansion through the investment in Świdnik is a key element of our global growth strategy and the new facility perfectly complements our plants in Germany and Spain,” said Hubertus Volmert, CEO of TRILUX. “With this third factory in Europe, we can respond even faster and more flexibly to local customer needs, reducing delivery times and distances, while increasing our independence from external influences, creating ideal conditions for further growth.”

The facility is equipped with a modern metal and plastic fabrication department, as well as a state-of-the-art powder coating line and flexible assembly stations, enabling quick and precise adaptation to individual customer needs and orders.

The building complex has been optimised to minimise CO2 emissions, meeting the highest sustainability standards and achieving BREEAM certification. Solar panels have been installed on site, along with charging points for electric vehicles. In addition, native plants have been planted, a wildflower meadow created and insect hotels installed to support local biodiversity.

According to EY’s Investment Attractiveness of Europe report, despite a general decline in foreign investment across Europe (down 4% in 2023 compared to 2022), Poland continues to show dynamic growth with only a 3% decline. New investment is crucial not only for job creation (229 new investments announced in 2023 are expected to create 22,378 new jobs), but also for revitalising the economic potential of regions with significant development opportunities.
