Painting for Fiat
New deals for the production of new Fiat 500 and 330 parts have been sealed and their serial production has been planned for the beginninng of 2017 in the factory FCA Kragujevac in Serbia. The above-mentioned car models will start to restyle soon and the expected annual revenue from this project in a full year production amounts to more than EUR 6 million.
Production of painted parts of instrument panel, bumper, air duct connector and shift lever cover for the vehicle 500 has been agreed. Painting and injection moulding of individual parts will be made in Zagreb Jankomir factory, blow moulded parts will be manufactured in Mladenovac, and part of injection moulded parts will be manufactured in Solin. Vehicles will be produced and assembled at Fiat plant in Kragujevac that is managed by the company Fiat Automobiles Serbia, which is part of the famous FCA Group with which AD Plastik plant in Mladenovac has been closely cooperating for several years. AD Plastik also cooperates with Fiat factories around the world where they sell their products from Solin and Mladenovac plants.
Although AD Plastik Group has been cooperating with the FCA Group for a long time, it is interesting to point out that this is the first deal regarding painting for this customer, which opens up new possibilities in that segment also for other models of their vehicles.
„This project enabled us to significantly expand cooperation with Fiat and by its realization Fiat should break into the second place regarding value in our customers portfolio. This deal opens up new possibilities for us which are result of long-term partnerships achieved with hard work. Number of our components in the vehicles being produced in Kragujevac has multiplied and now we are working with all Fiat plants,“ said Toni Štambuk, Sales Manager for the FCA Group.
