Moncler new production facility in Bacau, Eastern Romania, spreads across 8,000 square meters, distributed over two floors in addition to the production site of 16,000 square meters which opened almost eight years ago.
The ground floor of the new facility, of around 4,000 square meters, is dedicated to garment production and is equipped with the most innovative technologies featuring a new manufacturing technique.
The first floor of around 4,000 square meters houses the prototype and the pattern-making departments. It includes a cutting-edge R&D centre which develops innovative construction techniques and advanced features for high performance garments, such as the Moncler Grenoble collection.
The factory is powered with 100% renewable energy and is equipped with a centralised Building Management System for an integrated and more efficient management of energy consumption (lighting, air conditioning, etc.).
It is also equipped with a LED lighting system that plays a critical role, not only in terms of energy efficiency, but also for comfort while working as the lighting plan guarantees that employees operate in the optimum conditions.
Bacau factory is the only site owned by Moncler outside of Italy, and produces mainly down jackets that require specific and complex craftsmanship, like the Moncler Grenoble collectio.
With the new facility which currently accommodates about 230 people, the Moncler Industries Yield capacity is now of a total of almost 1,800 employees. The company is aiming to hire more than 200 additional employees.
