The Czech branch of German group Goldbeck, which specialises in steel-reinforced concrete prefabricated elements and building concrete systems for the construction industry, is planning to expand its production in the Czech Republic.
The company plans to either build a new plant or acquire an existing one in the west of Bohemia, with a definite decision coming in the next 18 months.
In the meantime, Goldbeck plans to expand its existing plant in Tovacov, increasing its capacity from 30,000m³ of concrete to 45,000m³ in about 12 months, investing over CZK 50 million (€1.81 million/US$2.38 million).
The number of employees in Tovacov should also increase from the current around 150 to over 200 people.
