  • Linamar Corporation Acquires New Springboard Into Europe July 7, 2008
    Linamar Corporation Acquires New Springboard into Europe July 7, 2008 - Guelph, ON – Linamar Corporation announces its acquisition of new automotive manufacturing facility, former Visteon plant in Swansea, Wales, United Kingdom (UK). This facility is Linamar’s first foray into manufacturing operations in the UK, and is the sister plant of the Company’s recently acquired Power Transfer Units (PTU) business in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico. “The facility in Wales offers Linamar deeper market share of our PTU business as well as increased critical mass and content per vehicle in Europe,” said Linamar’s chief executive officer, Linda Hasenfratz. “The location gives Linamar a new springboard into Europe; particularly for engine-related components and modules, given its engine-focused history.” The plan for the approximately 200,000 square-foot facility is to build the business by introducing new products such as camshafts, fly wheels and connecting rods. The scope of the business may expand to additional engine components. Linamar intends to make a substantial investment to modernize the plant and update production equipment to take the business forward. The acquisition includes the addition of 400 skilled employees to the Linamar family. The employees of the historically engine focused facility are the cornerstone of the investment. Swansea plant has a strong skilled workforce with a wide breadth of knowledge and experience in the manufacture of driveline and engine systems. “The Welsh Assembly Government has worked closely with the Linamar Corporation both in Canada and the UK in order to secure the long term future of the former Visteon Swansea facility,” said Ieuan Wyn Jones, Wale’s Minister for the Economy and Transport.
