ARENDAL, NORWAY – Kitron is planning a 7,500 sq. m. production facility here, with plans for completion during the first half of 2026.
"There is growth and a high level of activity at Kitron in Arendal, and we believe the activity will increase further in the years to come," said Heine Østby, managing director of Kitron Norway. "We are simply outgrowing the current premises. Now we get the opportunity to help design the perfect building for our needs. This gives us the opportunity to grow further here in Arendal, where Kitron has its roots back to the 1960s. We are extremely happy about that."
Kitron's operations in the area are currently divided between a facility of 7,300 sq. m., in Kilsund, Norway, and 4,000 sq. m. of rented premises at Stoa. When the new facility is ready, the company will move its Stoa operations to the new site, while the plant in Kilsund will continue as before.
