- Novem Group S.A. Novem Group S.A. is a Luxembourg-based company founded in 1947 that develops, manufactures and supplies premium trim elements and decorative functional elements for vehicle interiors in the automotive industry. The company offers a broad portfolio of high-end surface solutions, including instrument panels, center consoles, door trims, beltlines, dashboards and impact-resistant trim parts; these incorporate materials such as genuine wood, aluminum, carbon fiber, premium synthetics, leather and innovative elements like genuine stone or Swarovski crystals for premium carmakers worldwide. Novem operates 12 production sites across Germany, Luxembourg, Italy, Czech Republic, Slovenia, China, United States, Mexico and Honduras, serving major OEMs in the premium segment with engineering expertise in surface finishing and mechatronic components.
Recent developments include the award of contracts for Tesla Model Y interiors in Europe and the Americas, alongside the acquisition of an aluminum tailgate program marking entry into premium exterior trim; these initiatives drove substantial order intake amid market challenges. In fiscal year 2024/25, Novem reported revenue of 541 million euros with approximately 4,500 employees, following restructuring at its Vorbach plant in Germany and closure of an Italian facility to optimize European capacity. The company faces a potential buyout exploration by Bregal Investments, part of the Brenninkmeijer family, which could lead to delisting after its 2021 IPO, pending board approvals.
