Klarco's new state-of-the-art production facility in Aviano, Italy, spans 14,000 square meters of indoor space, with additional outdoor areas.
The new Aviano facility spans 14,000 square meters of indoor space, with additional outdoor areas. It accommodates all company offices and production departments, including the central warehouse, machinery shop, plating department, and assembly and shipping, under one roof. This centralized approach strengthens business operations, increases production capacity and improves lead times. Strategically located in Northeast Italy, Aviano offers excellent connectivity to major highways and proximity to the town center, ensuring easy access to services for employees and visitors.
"The new facility marks a significant milestone for Klarco. By consolidating into a single, modern site, we are better positioned to innovate, meet growing customer demand and drive long-term success," said Lorida Dehara, general manager at Klarco.
The new facility strengthens Klarco's commitment to both sustainability and employee well-being. Planned investments in renewable energy, waste management and resource recycling align with ESG principles, while new initiatives support a healthier, safer workplace. A dedicated fitness area will promote physical and mental well-being, and advanced technologies, including automated raw material management, a vertical warehouse and robotic systems in the machinery and plating departments, will enhance production quality while reducing strenuous manual labor and improving ergonomics.
"The opening of the Aviano facility aligns with T&S's commitment to strengthening our global presence, and we are proud to see Klarco thrive," said Eva-Marie Fox, president and chief operating officer at T&S.
An official ribbon cutting ceremony is planned for June.
