en.Wedoany.com Reported - Trelleborg Sealing Solutions India has initiated a new advanced manufacturing facility project in Bengaluru, Karnataka, a greenfield investment expected to increase production capacity by 30%. Spanning a land area of 50,000 square meters and scheduled for completion in 2027, this manufacturing facility will, for the first time, integrate comprehensive manufacturing capabilities, R&D facilities, application engineering support, a customer solutions center, a supply chain hub, and global IT services under one roof.
Since establishing its first manufacturing plant in Bengaluru in 2005, Trelleborg Sealing Solutions has achieved sustained growth through robust engineering support and localization strategies. The new manufacturing facility, with a built-up area of 30,000 square meters, will produce Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) products, rotary shaft seals, mechanical face seals, Polyurethane (PU), and other sealing solutions to serve various industries globally. This positions the company as one of the few multinational corporations capable of offering a diverse product portfolio locally for both the Indian and global markets.
A dedicated R&D center, equipped with a materials laboratory and a testing and technology laboratory, will conduct advanced materials and product testing to support customer needs. The facility will operate under international certifications including AS/EN 9100, IATF 16949, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO45001, serving industries such as aerospace, agriculture, automotive, construction, fluid power, industrial automation, oil, gas & energy, railways, and semiconductors.
The campus development focuses on reducing environmental impact, enhancing safety, and improving energy efficiency. It is expected to create hundreds of job opportunities and boost regional economic development. Shri M.B. Patil, Minister for Large & Medium Industries and Infrastructure Development, Government of Karnataka, said: "I extend my heartfelt wishes for the successful completion of this milestone event. The Government of Karnataka, through its progressive industrial policies, efficient administrative support, and unwavering commitment to fostering a business-friendly environment, has consistently supported the industry—including the engineering polymer solutions sector—and will continue to do so in the years to come."
The groundbreaking ceremony was presided over by Jürgen Bosch, Business Area President of Trelleborg Sealing Solutions, and KJ Tan, President of Operations for Asia Pacific, alongside the Indian leadership team, reaffirming the company's strategic commitment to the region. Jürgen Bosch stated: "This project marks a significant step for Trelleborg Sealing Solutions. With the establishment of the new manufacturing facility in Bengaluru, we are finally bringing our teams together in one unified campus. The new facility will strengthen our presence in the industrial and automotive sectors and support our strategic entry into the aerospace segment in India. By consolidating all functions, we are better positioned to accelerate innovation and serve both local and global customers."
