- Flex-N-Gate supplies multiple exterior components for the DS 7 built in Italy
- Program involves coordinated production across several European manufacturing sites
The Flex-N-Gate DS 7 components supply program has been confirmed for the newly launched model assembled at the Stellantis facility in Italy. The scope includes critical exterior systems such as the tailgate, spoiler, aerofins, and a lit grille, highlighting the supplier’s capability in delivering integrated body components. This development strengthens its presence in European vehicle programs while supporting premium design and aerodynamic performance requirements.
Multi-Site European Manufacturing Integration
The execution of this supply program is distributed across multiple facilities within Flex-N-Gate’s European network. Key production locations include Audincourt, Sabadell, Treviso, and Burnhaupt-le-Haut, enabling optimized logistics and synchronized manufacturing. This approach ensures consistent quality while maintaining flexibility in meeting production volumes for the Stellantis Melfi plant.
Strengthening Collaboration with Stellantis
This marks the second engagement between the supplier and the Melfi plant, reinforcing an ongoing collaboration with Stellantis. By delivering multiple exterior modules through coordinated operations, the program demonstrates efficiency in platform-level sourcing and assembly integration. It also reflects the growing importance of tier suppliers in supporting complex vehicle architectures across distributed manufacturing ecosystems.
The initiative underscores a continued focus on scalable supply chains and cross-border manufacturing alignment within Europe’s automotive production landscape.
