ATLANTA — Superior Essex, a global leader in the magnet wire and communic...
The Essex team is proud to announce production of the first wire on September 25, 2018 in our new production plant, located in Zrenjanin, Serbia.
We completed this milestone in only six months from the start of construction on March 15, as planned, as a result of the dedication and commitment of Essex European teams, suppliers and the Serbian government.
The new plant reinforces the position of Essex in Southern Europe, especially for our customers who plan to build and enhance their own production capabilities in Eastern European countries. Our sales team is available as your first point of contact for beginning the homologations process and for questions regarding the new plant.
The official opening ceremony of Eastern Europe’s first Essex plant is set for November 29, 2018.
