AriensCo invests in the future – Production capacity at the Bühlertann plant expanded

Our family-owned company AriensCo is expanding its production capacity at the Bühlertann plant with the opening of a new assembly line. The capacity expansion is a response to the high demand for professional mowing technology for high grass.

"With the commissioning of the new production line, assembly line 311, we are increasing our total capacity by 1,500 units per year and expanding our production area by 400 m²," said Jochen Schneider, Executive Vice President EMEAA at the opening of the new line at the end of September. "With this capacity expansion, we can meet the high demand from the commercial sector and effectively counteract the delivery shortages of recent months."

Currently, the new production line is primarily used to build the AS 1000 Ovis remote-controlled tracked flail mower. In the long term, the line will also be used for other lawn mowers from the professional segment. "AriensCo's global distribution network opens up further potential for our high grass mowers. With the new assembly line, we are also excellently prepared for this."

The entire project was successfully implemented and realised in less than four months. "This was only possible thanks to the outstanding efforts of the entire team and the very good support from the suppliers," emphasised Jochen Schneider and made it clear that this investment is also a clear commitment from AriensCo to its German plant. When AS-Motor moved its headquarters to Bühlertann at the end of 2009, only a fraction of the available space at the former Kärcher plant was used. In the meantime, AriensCo uses the entire plant for its activities.
