Noventa's growth opens up new career opportunities
Thanks to full order books, new customers and forward-looking projects, the Noventa Group could break the CHF 100 million sales mark before the end of 2022, the company says. At the same time, the technology company from the Rhine Valley offers many career opportunities for new employees.
Thanks to new customers, projects and products, the technology company Noventa continues to grow as a development and manufacturing partner of established OEMs and innovative young companies. "After challenging times, we are looking forward to a promising year with new customers and pioneering products. In the process, we could achieve sales of over CHF 100 million for the first time," says Patrick Besserer, CEO of Noventa AG. Projects for existing customers such as CWS, LaPreva, Laufen, V-Zug, Kärcher and Winterhalter will also contribute to this.
Noventa's growth offers opportunities for new employees
With its growth, the company is also opening up career opportunities for new employees. "Thanks to full order books, new customers and new projects, we are clearly on course for growth. In almost all areas, we are opening up opportunities for new talent to actively shape the future of our company," says Chief Business Administration Philippe Bürki. In the coming months, the company will advertise numerous vacancies, according to the statement. The Diepoldsau site is already looking for personnel reinforcement for business administration tasks, but also for project management, development, procurement and finance.
Modernization and expansion plans for all sites
The industrial products and sanitary and hygiene products segments in particular are developing positively, but growth is also picking up significantly in the consumer goods, automotive and coffee machine segments. As a result, all sites are operating at full capacity and Noventa AG is pressing ahead with its further development, the statement to the media continued. The site in Romania is being modernized and expanded with new office and production space as well as additional injection molding machines. An expansion of production space is also planned at the Thailand production site. At its Swiss headquarters, the company is continuing to invest in its innovation center to create even more space for creativity and development.
Noventa develops and produces trend-setting products for customers
With around 700 employees and production sites in Switzerland, Thailand and Romania, the technology company supports the development and manufacture of products for the future. "We are proud to work with our customers to develop and manufacture innovative products to market readiness," says product developer Christian Frei. "This also particularly benefits companies that want to work with a specialist for sophisticated product systems."
One recent example is the Dokoki "Sandy" baby monitor, which is equipped with cameras, a sleep aid, integrated media player and two-way communication, and can be conveniently controlled via a smartphone. Noventa also illustrates its enthusiasm for new ideas with a world first: The hygienic and waterless toilet system Clesana for motorhomes and boats is to be launched as early as the second quarter of 2022. For Laufen, Noventa manufactures the high-quality shower toilet Aqiva especially for the Chinese market, and for CWS the visually appealing, modern hygiene systems of the CWS PureLine product line.
From plastics specialist to innovation and manufacturing center
Noventa's roots go back to 1958. In the meantime, the company has developed into a high-performance innovation and manufacturing center for sophisticated product systems that are realized and produced on behalf of customers. With around 700 employees at three locations (headquarters in Switzerland, Thailand and Romania), the Noventa Group achieved annual sales of around CHF 82 million in 2021. It is led by a three-person management team, which also holds a majority stake in the company. Its customers include Bernina, Compleo, CWS, Laufen, LaPreva, Ivoclar, Kärcher, Siemens, SKROSS, V-Zug and Winterhalter. Since 2004, Noventa has acted as a showcase company for lean management. Following the introduction of lean production, the company has significantly increased its sales on the same floor space. The company's customers also benefit from this know-how. The Noventa Group includes the subsidiaries Noventa (Thailand) Co., Ltd., Noventa Romania S.R.L. (Romania), Noventa Tooling AG (Widnau), Noventa Consulting AG (Diepoldsau), and LaPreva AG (Diepoldsau).
