Technology giant Jenoptik, which manufactures smart mobility solutions as part of its broad portfolio, has announced doubling of its presence in the Canadian market with the doubling of its R&D and manufacturing space in Ontario.

The firm’s expansion in Ontario is a result of increasingly high demand for its products and services. “As cities and towns continue to expand and elected officials want to keep their communities safer and route traffic efficiently, we have experienced parallel growth over the past 12 years in the Canadian market delivering our smart mobility solutions,” said Finbarr O’Carroll, President of the Americas in Jenoptik’s Smart Mobility Solutions division.

The new facility, located just 20 km from its previous location in Mississauga, west of Toronto, doubles the current available space, allowing for a larger production area in which will be used for research and development, manufacturing and warehousing. Corporate offices and support services will occupy the accompanying administration space.
