Emanuel Boeminghaus wrote that the foundry in Ueckermünde should close at the end of 2026; this would result in 290 employees losing their jobs. The plant primarily produces cast parts for automotive brakes and, according to the Breyden Group, has not been sufficiently utilized for some time. According to Boeminghaus, the site management had indicated a lack of orders at the beginning of 2026 and attempted to attract new customers and modernize production. These efforts have reportedly been unsuccessful, according to NDR. The Breyden Group had only taken over the plant in 2025; negotiations about a social plan are now to be held with the works council. Boeminghaus described the closure as further evidence of how a lack of orders and the crisis in the automotive industry put established industrial sites under pressure. https://t.co/zQxr7DGBSA #Autoindustrie #Arbeitsplätze #Industrie (translated)
