German company Hengst Filtration has opened an IT hub in Romania, in the city of Craiova, expanding its global IT footprint. “The new hub allows us to adopt new technologies faster, respond flexibly to business needs and prepare our IT landscape for the future,” says CFO Jörg Schroeder.
In 2024, Hengst Filtration has opened a new site in Balș, Romania, and is now represented in a total of 13 countries. The filtration specialist from Münsterland has thus added another important building block in its production chain to its portfolio. The Balș plant, which covers an area of up to 15,000 square meters, will primarily produce filters for the “Filtration for Home and Profession” sector, i.e. for cleaning appliances and power tools in the private and professional sectors.
Founded in 1958 in Münster, Westphalia, Hengst Filtration is a family-owned company that develops innovative filtration and fluid management solutions with more than 3,700 employees at 28 locations worldwide.
