SEBN SK

Ini­tial­ly known as Volk­swa­gen Elek­trické Sys­témy s.r.o., SE Bor­d­net­ze – Slo­va­kia s.r.o. was estab­lished in 1996 and man­u­fac­tured pro­to­type form­ing boards and wiring har­ness­es for auto­mo­tive indus­try projects. A major change hap­pened in April 2006 when the par­ent group Volk­swa­gen Bor­d­net­ze GmbH was acquired by the Japan­ese busi­ness­es Sum­it­o­mo Elec­tric Indus­tries, Ltd. and Sum­it­o­mo Wiring Sys­tems, Ltd., both of which are a part of the Sum­it­o­mo group. These mod­i­fi­ca­tions led to the com­pa­ny’s rebrand­ing in Octo­ber 2006 as SE Bor­d­net­ze – Slo­va­kia s.r.o. (SEBN SK).

Trans­for­ma­tion of SEBN SK

Up until 2016, pro­to­types were made in Nitra. The busi­ness moved from a man­u­fac­tur­ing facil­i­ty to a shared ser­vices cen­ter in 2017. Octo­ber 1, 2019, marked the com­ple­tion of the trans­for­ma­tion with the change of the com­pa­ny’s reg­is­tered seat.

Today, SEBN SK is a mod­ern cen­ter pro­vid­ing com­pre­hen­sive tech­ni­cal sup­port for auto­mo­tive projects of its par­ent com­pa­ny Sum­it­o­mo Elec­tric Bor­d­net­ze (SEBN).

The devel­op­ment and cal­cu­la­tion of wiring har­ness­es, the imple­men­ta­tion and man­age­ment of pro­duc­tion process­es, the suc­cess­ful project launch into the pro­duc­tion process, pro­duc­tion cost con­trol, and addi­tion­al cal­cu­la­tions of poten­tial improve­ments are all includ­ed in SEBN SK’s tech­ni­cal sup­port.

The com­pa­ny as employ­er

The two main pil­lars of SEBN SK’s oper­a­tions are empha­siz­ing employ­ee devel­op­ment and estab­lish­ing ide­al work­ing con­di­tions. There are 168 work­ers in the com­pa­ny at the moment.

One of SEBN SK’s major achieve­ments and chal­lenges for 2024 was open­ing a branch in Hun­gary on June 3, which was required for the com­pa­ny to sell wiring har­ness­es to a large cus­tomer.
