TitanX, a company producing radiators for trucks and buses, will employ an additional 100 people at its new plant in Opole. The factory in Opole is expected to contribute to increased sales in Europe and could provide an opportunity for TataAutoComp, the Indian conglomerate that owns TitanX, to expand its operations in this part of the continent in the future. The factory opened on 16 January 2024, and employment is expected to increase to 250 people over the next two years (up from the current 150 employees). Production workers, including operators and specialists, will be employed. TitanX Engine Cooling is a global supplier of powertrain cooling solutions to commercial vehicles, both for OEMs and the independent aftermarket.
