Bosch expands in Poland

German firm Bosch, the diversified industrial giant, announced it would spend E30 (zł.103) million on new projects in Poland this year, up from €21  (zł.72) million in 2007. The lion's share of the sum will be spent on a new diesel particulate filters plant in Mirków near Wrocław, a joint-venture with Japan's Denso.

The total cost of the project is approximately €164 (zł.560) million. The facility, which is due to start operations in 2009, will employ about 250 people.
