Glaverbel and Flabeg have just signed a Letter of Intent according to which Glaverbel intends to sell its production of automotive mirrors to the German group Flabeg, which specialises in this activity.

The transaction would cover the main Miroiterie Hirtz production site and headquarters at Sarrewerden (France), together with processing units in the UK (Bradley Glass), Italy (Vetrerie Hirtz), Spain (Guardiola) and the Czech Republic (Mirocar). Altogether the activity employs around 500 people.

The Miroiterie Hirtz geographical locations complement those of Flabeg, which is present in Europe, North & South America and China.
