Description
The plant engineering company Doubvava, situated in Upper Austria, had to file for insolvency, thus making all of its 235 employees redundant. The company had liabilities for €45.6 millions.
130 among the former company's employees are to be taken over by other regional companies: The Wels-based company FMT, specialised in industrial assembly, is to take over about 60 employees, thereby setting up a new subsidiary "Doubrava Industrieanlagenbau". Up to 70 employees (among them 13 apprentices) are to be taken over by the Attnang-based Inocon Technologie company. Inocon also takes over Doubrava's means of production.
