British fiber optic company expands in Erfurt

Another boost for fast internet: The Emtelle Group is adding microduct production capacity in Erfurt and will soon start making fiber optic cables itself at multimodal business park GVZ Erfurt. Since taking over Moore GmbH in October 2017, the Emtelle Group has completely repositioned the company and generated tremendous growth. It now employs 82 employees here, with more to come. Emtelle recently purchased 1.7 hectares of land next to its current factory at GVZ Erfurt. The new structure will house a VDE-compliant product test facility and customer training center, production and storage capacity and office and training rooms. According to Emtelle, it will soon be the only manufacturer in Germany to manufacture and combine both of the technological components needed for fast internet under one roof: microducts and fiber optic cables.
