In 2002, BSH began the largest factory overhaul undertaken by the company up to that point. A new laundry care and a new free-standing cooker factory were constructed from scratch. Covering an area of 37,000 square meters and representing an investment of 200 million dollars, the two new factories were BSH's largest investment outside of Germany at this time. By the time the project was completed, some 800,000 washing machines and dryers as well as 400,000 free-standing cookers were being produced annually.
