Sensirion announced that it will expand its production site in Debrecen, Hungary, by 5,000 square meters.
The first phase of the expansion is expected to be completed by the fourth quarter of 2024 and the second phase by the first quarter of 2025 and will significantly increase Sensirion's production capacity for sensor modules. The expansion will be built and financed by a local build-to-suit partner.
"We are very satisfied with the performance of our production site in Debrecen," said Patrick Good, director of maintenance and infrastructure at Sensirion. "The expansion is an important step to continue to supply our customers with high-quality sensor modules in sufficient quantities.”
The decision to expand is based on the positive experience with the existing production site in Debrecen over the past two years and the expected demand for sensor and module solutions. Sensirion is a global company and supplies its products to more than 100 countries.
The extension building will be docked to the existing building and will also be integrated into the existing system in terms of sustainability, which plays a central role at Sensirion. As with the production facility in Stäfa, it was designed and built to be completely fossil-free (geothermal energy/heat recovery, coupled with a storage system and a photovoltaic system).
"The experience of the past two and a half years with the new building has been entirely positive and instructive. After initial teething problems and subsequent optimizations, we have benefited enormously from the investments in the building's sustainability over the past year. For example, we are now 50 percent self-sufficient during the summer months," says Imre Toeroek, facility manager at Sensirion Hungary.
