L-Acoustics has opening three new facilities, dedicated to production, logistics and carpentry.
With yearly double-digit growth over the last decade, the French loudspeaker company is expanding its manufacturing capacity in response to market demand. The new facilities will enable L-Acoustics to increase production significantly by the end of 2015.
A new logistics facility has been operational since early 2015. Located in the Paris region close to the company’s headquarters in Marcoussis, the new warehouse increases the company’s logistics facilities to 8,200m2, expanding capacity by 300 per cent. The new warehouse is joined by a new production facility also located in Marcoussis. This assembly site covers 3,000m2 and is dedicated to the manufacture of L-Acoustics sound systems – doubling the current production availability. The company’s 4,000m2 headquarters, which previously contained both production and business teams, will now be dedicated to business operations and R&D.
L-Acoustics’ carpentry subsidiary, located in the Strasbourg region of France will also double in size with the opening of a 5,000m2 purpose-built carpentry and paint factory, which is currently under construction and will open in the final quarter of 2015.
‘With the rapid worldwide adoption of reference products like K2, L-Acoustics has been blessed with phenomenal growth,’ explains Stéphane Ecalle, Director of Marketing. ‘The expansion of our logistics and production facilities will allow us to grow in lockstep with the increasing demand.’
