New European Centre of Expertise Opens on Pensnett Industrial Estate

ERIKS UK & Ireland has officially opened the doors to its European Centre of Expertise for Power Transmission in Kingswinford, Dudley.

Located at Prime Point on the Pensnett Industrial Estate, the 30,000 sq ft premises will be home to over 120 employees and will be dedicated to continued innovation and customer service. The move and the commitment to a 15-year lease of the new facility, furthers the company’s ambitions to be leaders in its field, with the Black Country proving to be the ideal location for its product management and technical operations.

As the leading industrial service partner in the UK and Ireland, ERIKS offers a wide range of parts, technical advice, operational knowledge, and predictive maintenance services to improve asset total cost of ownership for customers in industrial sectors.

Simon M Franken, CEO of ERIKS Group, comments: “Creating a European Centre of Expertise is a strategic investment for ERIKS group that will help support and develop the power transmission product and service capability across all of Europe. The UK, and Dudley specifically, seemed like a fitting location for the Centre of Expertise given the industrial roots of the Black Country region and the success of our head office in Halesowen.”
