To further cover the Eastern European market, RMA Polska SP.z.o.o. was founded in Chojnow, about 100 km away from the German border. After a long search, RMA decided not to acquire an existing company but rather build something new on its own site. In the new location production was to be mainly for the two German plants. In addition contract production for customers in the entire European market was introduced at this plant.
The development and manufacture of high pressure ball valves was begun in Kehl.
