History

[edit]

Jugoplastika (1968–1992)

[edit]

The »Galanterija« ('Haberdashery') and »Termoprerada kombinat« ('Thermal processing plant') plants in Split began in 1968 the production of interior car parts (door and roof linings, sunshades, thermoformed wallpapers, mats and seat protectors) for the Zavod Crvena Zastava (Kragujevac), Citroën, Renault, Fiat, Lada, Dacia and Volkswagen.[7] In the early 1980s, the department in Muć began the production of metal haberdashery, and parts and accessories for motor vehicles were produced by the »Brizgalice« ('Syringes') plant from Solin, »Profili« ('Profiles') from Makarska, »Termooblikovanje« ('Thermoforming') from Split and »Obrada metala« ('Metal processing') from Muć and together they employ about 2,000 workers.[7] In 1988, these plants separated into RO Jugoplastika – Autodijelovi.[7]
