Gothenburg, 7 July 2026: Gapwaves today announced that it has received a new order from Valeo for additional and accelerated production capacity for the high-volume manufacturing of waveguide antennas supplied to Valeo. The order value amounts to approximately 6 MSEK, and the revenue is expected during the second half of 2026.
Production for Valeo commenced in June 2025 at Gapwaves’ pilot facility in Gothenburg and was subsequently transferred during Q2 2026 to Frencken Group’s facility in Chuzhou, China, for high-volume manufacturing. The order concerns the acceleration of a planned capacity expansion at the same facility.
"The fact that Valeo is now choosing to invest further in order to make production capacity available earlier than planned is a strong confirmation of the strength of the collaboration with Gapwaves and our joint initiative. It shows that Valeo is seeing increased demand and wants to ensure that, together, we can meet these needs for higher volume and shorter lead times," says Jonas Ehinger, CEO of Gapwaves.
