Bremen – Thermal Systems

The Valeo site in Bremen focuses on the production of front-end modules.

At the Valeo site in Bremen-Hemelingen, which belongs to the Thermal Systems Business Group, front-end modules have been assembled in just-in-sequence processes since 2014. This is done in the direct vicinity of the customer’s assembly plant. In addition to the front-end assembly carrier, the modules consist of pneumatic lines, the engine cooling system and the crash management system, depending on the equipment. These complex assembly units are supplemented at the customer’s plant with visible body elements such as headlights, radiator grilles and bumpers. Almost 300 employees work at the site on the production of front-end modules, which are assembled in the neighboring customer plant as well as in the plants in Beijing and East London (SA).
