Description

Inteva Products, the Czech subsidiary of the American parent company of the same name, and manufacturer of automotive components will close its plant in Rychnov u Jablonec nad Nisou in July and August 2026. This will result in the loss of more than 100 jobs.

According to company management, this move is the result of a review of available alternatives and options, under which production will be relocated to Romania. All layoffs affect the plant in Rychnov and are being carried out as mass layoffs; no other methods of termination are mentioned.

The union is negotiating the terms of the layoffs, but the details of the agreement remain undisclosed.
