DSM triples plant capacity in India
DSM Engineering Plastics India has opened a new manufacturing facility for producing engineering plastic compounds in India.
An increased presence in emerging economies is one of the key strategic drivers of DSM’s Vision 2010 strategy. “This investment is an important step forward in increasing our presence in India. We are impressed with the growth of our Indian operations and this facility will help to achieve further profitable growth in the future”, said Nico Gerardu, member of the managing board of DSM.
DSM Engineering Plastics’ growth in India is highlighted by its association – from an early phase onwards – with the Tata Nano, which will be launched later this month. DSM’s engineering plastics have been approved for more than 20 parts in under the bonnet components as well as parts for the transmission.
The new facility further improves customer service levels and gives Indian customers enhanced access to DSM’s global technology base. DSM India, a subsidiary of Royal DSM, Netherlands, applies the same high technology and environmental standards as used in its other manufacturing operations around the world.
