The first phase of the expansion of Unilever Magyarország Kft.'s household chemicals plant in Nyírbátor, representing an investment of EUR 50 million, has been completed, during which two new production lines and a packaging hall were built. As a result of the development, 100 new jobs will be created in addition to the existing 300 jobs in one of the most state-of-the-art, strategically important European production centres of the British-Dutch parent company.
Thanks to the development, the plant producing the Domestos, Cif and Flóraszept detergents as well as Surf and Omo laundry gels and Coccolino fabric conditioners will be expanded with a new packaging line and a modern warehouse in addition to the existing production lines. After the development completion, the plant will be able to produce 370 million bottles of products per year compared to the current 300 million. The bottles are made from 70% recycled plastic. The high-bay warehouse, which can accommodate nearly 14,000 pallets, will feature rail guided vehicles and automatic loading cranes.
Poland, Hungary and Germany are the plant's largest market outlets. With the current investment, 90% of Unilever's household chemical products sold in the Eastern European region will be produced here.
