Germany: Va-Q-Tec has nearly completed the expansion of its Kölleda plant in Thuringia. A new second plant at its Kölleda site has increased the production area by 3000m2 and created additional space for storage, laboratories and offices. Production capacity at the site will be tripled following the upgrade. Va-Q-Tec manufactures vacuum isolation panels at Kölleda for use in pharmalogistics, cooling units and in the construction industry for thermal isolation or cold chain logistics. The expansion is expected to be completed in June 2018.
