Backed by a dedicated government decision, the project will run between 2016 and 2018, with a total capital cost of 18.9 billion forints, including a 4.7 billion forint grant provided by the Hungarian government.

Bosch one of the largest employers in Hungary
“The new project will involve both the purchase of machines to produce automotive electronic parts and the expansion of existing capacity”, said Javier González Pareja, representative of the Bosch Group in Hungary. “This will raise the company’s competitiveness and strengthen customer confidence, which is anticipated to generate further orders.” The expansion in Hatvan carries on Boschʼs programme of creating jobs in Hungary. At nine Hungarian subsidiaries the Bosch Group currently employs more than 12,000 associates, making it one of the largest foreign-owned employer in the country.

Expand manufacturing capacity for environmentally-friendly technologies
Volker Schilling, commercial plant manager of Robert Bosch Elektronika Kft., said: “By broadening its product portfolio, Bosch is reacting to the growing market demand. With this increase in capacity, the Hatvan plant is once again strengthening its position as an employer in the region.” Bosch is shaping its product portfolio with an eye to the megatrends in the global mobility industry. Roger Seemeyer, technical plant manager, added: “Innovative products for electrification of vehicles will support the expected changes in individual mobility with less CO2 emission, radar devices and camera systems to monitor vehicle surroundings are essential for higher car safety and future autonomous and connected driving systems.”

The project will greatly contribute to raising the competitiveness of Robert Bosch Elektronika Kft. and strengthening its leading position in the manufacturing of automotive electronic parts. The Hatvan plant, established in 1998, is the Bosch Groupʼs largest automotive electronics factory worldwide.
