Armor inaugurates new plant in India

-

Armor India has inaugurated its new factory in Bengaluru. Spread across an area of 45,000 sq ft in the Bidadi Industrial area, the new plant is equipped with three slitting machines, an automated core-cutting unit, automated packaging line and a quality lab. Another slitting machine will be installed in the next three months. The new plant was inaugurated by Hubert De Boisredon, chairman and CEO of Armor Group.

The company also organized its first ever technical conference in India which was attended by more than fifty guests from the indudtry. Armor took the opportunity to launch its new products, AXR EL and AXR TX, at the conference. While AXR EL is dedicated to the electronic segment, especially targeted at printed circuit boards (PCBs), AXR TX is dedicated to textile industry targeted primarily at care labels. Both products ensure that information remains legible while withstanding the stress that the product is subjected to during its lifecycle. They also guarantee compatibility with specific label materials used in respective industries. AXR EL, for instance, has been tested to offer resistance to high temperature of up to 300 degree C and also PCB cleaning specific solvents.

Armor entered India in 2013 with an acquisition of a small slitting company in Bengaluru. After completing the acquisition in 2014, the company shifted to a bigger facility that housed two slitting machines it acquired from the Indian company and a new machine from Europe. A second European slitter was installed in 2015 followed by another in 2016. Due to exponential growth in the region, the company had to relocate its factory the second time in three years – this time to a space four times bigger than the first one – with all European equipment.
