The total structural surface area will increase from the present 7,000 to over 19,000 m2. 15,000 sq.m of this area will be dedicated to production, while a two-story building (2,000 sq.m) will house the offices; another 2.000 sq.m will be reserved for dormitories and the company restaurant. The development plans also provide for a further possible expansion of 10.000 sq.m from 2021. The new LU-VE Tianmen plant (which will employ over 70% of the current workforce in the Changshu factory) will be able to start production in autumn, reaching full operation in 2019. </span>
