CLAAS adopted an international outlook at an early stage: only a few years after the Second World War, CLAAS opened a production facility in France – its first outside Germany. More than 300,000 balers have rolled off the assembly line since the factory in the Lorrainian town of Woippy near Metz opened in 1961.
