Eve co-CEO Andre Stein said: “Our objective is to offer safe and reliable products and services to the market and be highly competitive in manufacturing efficiency. 

“The team was tasked with the opportunity to design an optimised assembly line that prioritises safety, quality, efficiency, productivity and sustainability.”
