Strategy
SHW Group’s goal is to further enhance the strong market position in the business segments Pumps and Engine Components and the Brake Discs. In order to accomplish these goals, the company is pursuing the following strategic priorities:
Concentration
on new, innovative product solutions
In its Pumps and Engine Components business segment the SHW Group
aims to be a leading technology partner for different drive systems and has
already developed solutions for the various powertrain concepts that are
already being deployed in serial production of hybrid vehicles. In addition, a
particular focus is on truck & off-highway applications. In the Brake Discs
business segment, the Company plans the serial production of cost-effective
composite brake discs.
Regional
expansion of manufacturing and distribution activities
The scalability of the pumps business allows a relatively simple
business expansion in the countries where the clients of the SHW Group already
have production facilities or planning to build new ones in the future. The company
plans to follow its customers in growth markets such as China, Brazil and
India.
