The Turkish company Flex Academy has started producing hoses, steel pipes, hollow profiles and fittings. The production facility, located in the Free Zone, takes up an area of 20,000 square meters.

A total of 80 workers are currently being trained at the plant, and according to the announcements by the investors, by the end of the year, when the serial production is completed, 300 workers will be employed there, PPmedia reports.

After nearly six months of equipping the production facility and mounting the first set of automatic machines for the final production, the first pipes were produced on Wednesday for a foreign purchaser.

According to the company's director, Suleyman Karakus, the test phase started with twenty machines for the final production of pipes, and new ones are expected to arrive soon.

– We expect a complete line, with which the serial production of steel pipes will begin, to arrive in ten days. The test lab will also be completed in the next two weeks, following which 160 workers will be active in the full capacity of the first phase of the production – Karakus reveals.


The job contest opened by the Turkish company quickly drew interest of more than a thousand unemployed person in the town on the Lim, the majority of which are former workers of Priboj's former industrial giant FAP.

Flex Academy has several decades of experience in the production of steel pipes and sells its products throughout Europe and Asia, in more than 20 countries.
