Domel’s geographical data
Domel has manufacturing plants in six locations: four in Slovenia, one in Serbia and one in China.
Two Slovenian plants are in Železniki, one in Otoki, where the company’s registered office is also located, and the other in Na Plavžu. We have been manufacturing electric motors in Reteče since 1992. The manufacturing plant in Trata, Škofja Loka, was completely renovated. In accordance with the strategic plan, we plan additional growth, and thus there is a need to expand the production and storage capacities in Slovenia.
We are also increasing the production in plants outside Slovenia. Due a great demand for coffee machine motors, we are doubling the capacities for DC motors in Serbia. In China, we will start to produce a new range on a new production line.
Our customers and suppliers come from all continents. We export approximately 95% of our products. Our primary market is Europe.
