Building work officially began on the new 25,500 square-foot bespoke facility being built for Haldex, at MIRA Technology Park in Hinckley, U.K. To celebrate, a ground-breaking ceremony was held with a number of senior representatives from both companies.
The event, which took place on the ground where Haldex's European Technical Centre will be located, was also marked by the announcement that the firm has already filled several of its technical roles to be based at the Centre.
The Technical Centre, expected to open during the final quarter of 2014 will create a European research and development base for Haldex' global product offer, and will include laboratory facilities as well as providing Haldex engineers direct access to MIRA's own test facilities and engineering expertise.
