In order to keep pace with demand, PB has also completed the steel frame for its new production hall, at its facility in Oberbechingen, Southern Germany. The building will have an overall height of 10 metres into the eaves, and will be equipped with two overhead cranes, for assembly work. It should be completed this autumn.

In addition to a new production area, the new hall will incorporate offices, which will the house the manufacturing, engineering and design teams. By bringing them together the company hopes that it will encourage the two teams to work closer together.
