DOWNERS GROVE, Ill., Jan. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- SWEP, part of Dover (NYSE: DOV), announced plant expansions for Landskrona, Sweden and Kosice, Slovakia, in order to meet increasing market demand and drive continued growth.

"Renewable energy sources and more efficient energy use are absolute musts. SWEP's heat exchanger technology plays a vital role in the conversion from old, non-sustainable sources and inefficient technologies. By expanding our production in EMEA through additional capacity equipment, such as press lines, furnaces and automation, we will significantly increase our abilities to serve the market. We are here to grow with our customers. With optimized operation flow, we become more flexible towards meeting demands, and thereby less vulnerable to unpredicted events," stated Fredrik Paulsson, General Manager EMEA.

In Landskrona, the construction work started in November 2019. During the summer of 2020, the new production equipment will be installed and throughout the fall, all lines will be optimized. In addition to the production area, new office space will be built.

The expansion in Kosice will start at the beginning of 2021 and will be fully operational in the second half of 2022.
