Maxcess, a global leader in innovative products and services for automated web handling applications, is set to commence local manufacturing of its FIFE Guiding product line in India. Production will begin in January 2025, starting with the FIFE 500 Max Web Guiding System.
The decision to establish a local manufacturing facility is a significant step forward for Maxcess India. As the market for automated web handling solutions continues to expand rapidly, local manufacturing will not only bolster the company’s ability to meet the increasing demand but also significantly reduce lead times for customers. This means that customers can expect faster delivery of high-quality products tailored to their specific needs, thereby improving their operational efficiency.
“This initiative to manufacture the FIFE Guiding products in India is incredibly meaningful for us,” says Niraj Muni, general manager of Maxcess India. “With the rapid growth of the India market, local manufacturing allows us to better support our customers with cost-effective solutions and enhanced local support. Being closer to our customers means we can respond more quickly to their needs and provide tailored solutions that drive their success.”
Odd Joergenrud, CEO of Maxcess, says, “The FIFE 500 Max, known for its precision, accuracy, and reliability in guiding applications, will be assembled using state-of-the-art technology and processes that adhere to Maxcess’ high standard of quality. By leveraging local resources and expertise, Maxcess aims to foster innovation and improve the overall customer experience in India. Furthermore, this local manufacturing initiative is expected to create job opportunities within the region, contributing to the local economy and reinforcing Maxcess’ commitment to corporate social responsibility.”
