Hexagon Composites Opens Commercial Center in Munich, Germany Hexagon Composites opened a new commercial center in Munich, Germany, on 4 November 2021. Strategically located close to Europe's largest auto producers, major European original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and fleet operators. This center, in coordination with the expansion of Hexagon's production capacity, will provide customer support to the market. The purpose of the center is to further enhance customer intimacy with in-market resources in the areas of application engineering and aftermarket support. "The shift to alternative fuels in Europe is being driven by fleets and brands seeking to lead the decarbonization effort. The pace of development demands strong and close collaboration with each of them. With this new commercial center in Europe, we are better prepared to meet this demand with OEM application engineering and program management focused on supporting OEMs and fleets in the adoption of Hexagon's broad portfolio of clean solutions. In addition, technical aftersales and support will be augmented from the Munich location" said Eric Bippus, Senior Vice President global sales and marketing, Hexagon Agility. Hexagon Composites notes that to hit its goal of achieving climate neutrality by 2050, the European Union (EU) needs transport emissions to fall by 90% compared to 1990 levels. Further, the global market for alternative fuels is expected to grow by around four times to approximately $8 billion in 2025. "Remaining in close alignment with our commercial vehicle customers' needs and values is paramount to be successful in driving the energy transformation." said Michael Kleschinski, Executive Vice President, Hexagon Purus LDC
