ERJ staff report (PRW)

Ociazu, Poland -- Poland's L-Correct is planning to manufacture a new generation of latex foam for the furniture industry at a plant it aims to construct in Ociazu.

The facility, located in Poland's Lodz Special Economic Zone, will produce a range of latex foams and wire components intended for mattresses and upholstered furniture. The L-Correct project involves investment of around €17.5m and will lead to the creation of 100 jobs, according to the country's PAP news agency.

L-Correct, part of the Correct - K. Blaszczyk & Partners, expects the operation will provide the domestic Polish furniture market with innovative foams that are now imported from suppliers in countries such as France, Italy, Belgium and Spain.

The factory will be close to the group's existing plant in the Lodz SEZ's sub zone of Nowe Skalmierzyce. This operation has expanded in 2006 and 2008 with an overall investment worth €70.3m, and the group already employs 994 workers there, reported the Polish Information and Foreign Investment Agency Palilz.
