Faurecia, Automotive manufacturing facility in Saline, Michigan, United States
Faurecia is an automotive manufacturing plant on East Michigan Avenue in Saline, Michigan, producing seating systems and interior components for major car makers. The plant is part of a French-headquartered global company that supplies parts to vehicle producers around the world.
The parent company was founded in France in 1997 and expanded into North America to be close to the major US car producers. The Saline plant was established as part of that move into the heart of American auto manufacturing in Michigan.
Faurecia is part of a global network of suppliers that work directly with major vehicle makers, and the Michigan plant fits naturally into a region long tied to car production. The area around Saline has grown alongside the auto industry, and facilities like this one are a normal part of daily working life here.
The plant sits on East Michigan Avenue, which is easy to reach by car and runs through the broader Saline area. Because this is a working production site, any visit should be arranged in advance directly with the company.
In 2022, Faurecia merged with the German technology group Hella and the combined company rebranded as Forvia, making it one of the largest automotive suppliers in the world. The Saline plant now operates under this new identity, even though its production work has remained the same.
