Trelleborg’s decision to invest in Morocco stems from: 

Morocco has emerged as a major automotive powerhouse, reinforcing its position as a strategic location for industry investment. In line with Trelleborg Boots' commitment to customer proximity, being close to customers wherever they operate is a key principle for building strong, long-term partnerships. Combined with significant government investments in infrastructure and industrial facilities, these factors made Kenitra an attractive choice for greenfield development.

BUILDING SUSTAINABILITY & DIVERSITY

The Kenitra facility was designed with sustainability in mind, incorporating energy-efficient and waste-reduction measures while providing a strong foundation for further environmental improvements. At the same time, diversity remains a core value at Trelleborg, where all opportunities are open to all applicants and a supportive workplace culture enables talent to develop and thrive.
