Key Safety Systems (KSS) has announced plans to increase its production capacities in Europe to meet continued growth through an investment in Macedonia.

The plan consists of launching a ‘brownfield’ operation in late 2014, followed by a ‘greenfield’ operation in mid-2015 in the city of Kichevo.

The initial phase of the investment is focused on airbag cushion manufacturing and will create 800-1000 new jobs.

The site will allow significant future expansion of this product line as well as other products and services in the future.
