French injection molder AdduXi expanding into North America

LIVONIA, MICH. (Nov. 12, 4:15 p.m. ET) -- French injection molder AdduXi SAS is expanding into North America with an office in the Detroit suburb of Livonia and plans for a molding facility in Alabama within two years.

The company specializes in high precision, insert molding of automotive electronics and other parts, with headquarters in Oyonnax, France, and production in France and Switzerland.

AdduXi has been selling parts to North American automakers for several years, importing them from Europe, but increased demand for its parts is prompting a larger move into the region, said Thomas Betzer, who heads up AdduXi USA Inc.

The Livonia office is the first stage of AdduXi’s plans, with production set for a plant in Elkmont, Ala., as business grows, possibly as early as late 2010, Betzer said. Details for that site will depend on the business development during the next few months.

Beyond that, the company will consider expansion either in Alabama or at other locations, he said.
