History

More than a century of manufacturing tradition in Hajnice.

More than 120 years of industrial tradition

The roots of our production plant go back to 1905, when it was founded as a textile factory. A major milestone came in 1942, when manufacturing of electrical engineering equipment began and the company gradually expanded its technological focus.

After being incorporated into the state-owned enterprise PAL Prague – Kbely in 1948, the production program focused on electrical components for the automotive industry. Thanks to decades of experience, technical development and skilled staff, the plant established a strong position among the leading manufacturers of electrical components.

In 1995 the company Autopříslušenství Hajnice a.s. was established as part of the PAL holding company. A year later, in September 1996, the company was privatised by the Czech company H.L.F. spol. s r.o., which continued the long-standing tradition of manufacturing and further developed the technological and production capacities.

Another major step was the extensive modernization of the facility in 2008, including the renovation of production areas and the construction of a new production hall. Through ongoing investment in technology, quality and production processes, the company today builds on more than a century of industrial tradition and supplies its products to customers in the automotive and electrical engineering industries in the Czech Republic and abroad.
