Premium AEROTEC commenced production of aircraft components in Ghimbav, Brașov County, Romania at the turn of the year 2010/2011. The contract was signed on 3 April 2010, the groundbreaking ceremony took place on 5 May 2010, the production facilities for the first construction phase were certified in December 2010 and deliveries began in January 2011. Work on the second construction phase began in March 2011 and the building was completed in early July. Installation and calibration of the production facilities in this phase will take until the beginning of 2012.
The ceremonial inauguration of the plant had been on 12 July 2011, by which time around 300 employees are working there. Premium AEROTEC expects to have around 550 employees in Brașov by the end of 2012; employees of supplier companies will increase the numbers even further.
The plant’s location was chosen because of the expertise available in the Braşov area, especially in the field of metalworking. What is more, the plant’s location enables it to form an aerospace cluster with the traditional Romanian aviation company IAR Braşov and Eurocopter’s Romanian subsidiary, both of which are in the immediate vicinity.
