French building material company Saint-Gobain on Monday inaugurated its glass complex at Bhiwadi in Rajasthan, built at an investment of about Rs 1,000 crore.
B Santhanam, President-Flat Glass, South Asia, Malaysia and Egypt, and Managing Director-Saint-Gobain Glass India, said: “The plant has a capacity to manufacture close to 1,000 tonnes of glass per day and is a fully automated and futuristic (with state-of-the-art robotics) integrated glass facility.”
He said that the plant’s location is strategic as the company will now be able to service the entire glass market of North India from Bhiwadi, which accounts for nearly 30 per cent of its sales. He said this will further strengthen the company’s manufacturing footprint in the country. It has other manufacturing facilities in Tamil Nadu and Gujarat, besides investments in an R & D centre.
