Deufol, global leader in supply chain solutions and industrial packaging, will start production of wooden packaging materials in Debrecen, eastern Hungary, in December 2019. In terms of sustainability and flexibility, Deufol’s plan is to acquire for its Debrecen operations raw materials and other goods needed for its activities directly in Hungary and to produce the necessary packaging products locally.

While the first phase of construction of the new packaging and logistics center in the Debrecen Southern Industrial Park is in full swing, preparations are underway to start production on a temporary site. Business operations in Hungary have been running since May 2019.

Deufol launches production in Debrecen, which operates independently from other European production sites of the Deufol Group. This will ensure the future supply of wood packaging for Deufol’s customers in Hungary and neighboring countries.

The completion of the first construction phase with 4,000 m² of hall and office space and 30,000 m² of open space is planned for the second quarter of 2020. There are plans for further halls for the remaining property. The next expansion by one or two halls and further open space is expected to start in the course of 2020 and targeted to be completed in spring 2021. Deufol is investing well over EUR 20 million in these first two phases.
