Gabriel-Chemie has broken ground on the expansion of its warehouse capacity at the headquarters in Gumpoldskirchen, Austria.
The plan is to enlarge the existing warehouse by approximately 3,200 m².
Further Strengthening Supply Chain and Logistics
This measure is in line with the company commitment to environmental protection and sustainability, as all existing green areas will be preserved. This expansion will be accompanied by a new traffic concept equipped with state-of-the-art technical filters to avoid contamination.
Inside the new building, a flexible rack system will be installed, providing an additional 5,000 pallet spaces. This will make open air storage spaces obsolete in future. As a result, the Gumpoldskirchen site will further strengthen its significant role for the Gabriel-Chemie Group, especially in the field of supply chain and logistics. Additionally, the building will be equipped with a photovoltaic system contributing an additional 320 kWp to the existing 881 kWp installation.
Andreas Berger, CFOO stated, “
This warehouse extension, requiring an investment of €7.0 million, underscores our commitment to further strengthen Gabriel-Chemie's position as a future-oriented masterbatch manufacturer.”
