A commitment to India

Several speakers took the visitors, which included both customers and suppliers, on a journey from the past to presence. Besides her Excellency Brigitte Öppinger-Walchshofer, the Austrian ambassador to India, Rajeev Sharma, AM, S&T, Railway Board, Akhilesh Yadav, COO Frauscher India and Melanie Gangl, Production Director Frauscher India, of course Alok Sinha, Managing Director Frauscher India and Michael Thiel, CEO Frauscher Sensor Technology, addressed some words to the audience.

“Ever since Frauscher made its debut in India in 2013, we have been growing stronger year on year. Thanks to the strengths that we have developed, we have even extended our coverage to customers outside the country’s borders. Moving our production unit into a new and more modern building will support us in realising their projects together within stipulated time frames. Furthermore, it is another contribution of Frauscher to the ‘Make in India’ initiative”, Mr Sinha summarised.

In his speech, Michael Thiel emphasised on the importance that the Indian railway market has to Frauscher: “From our point of view, the Indian market is in fact really impressive and unique. The market volume itself is huge and the Indian government has also drawn up impressive infrastructure plans for the future, which will have a big impact on the railway and metro networks. Against that backdrop, the inauguration of this new production facility reflects our commitment to the Indian market. By strengthening our supply chain on-site we are able to provide our customers with individual solutions for their requirements.”

A modern world of working

After the building was officially inaugurated, a company tour gave the attendees a chance to get an impression of the size and possibilities of the new building. Divided into numerous groups, all visitors showed high interest in the facility’s properties. Meticulous planning and innovative design will support the team on site in meeting all relevant production requirements. Optional needs for future growth have been considered as well. The new facility provides space for multiple meeting rooms, a dedicated RDSO inspection area, quality check and quality assurance departments, a warehouse, separate areas for sensor assembly and packing, as well as work stations for all employees, an in-house cafeteria and more.

Successful finale

After the company tour, everyone assembled on the top floor of the production unit. With its open architecture and separate terrace, it provided a perfect frame for a unique rooftop party. There, a buffet of a wide variety of Indian dishes was waiting and all visitors enjoyed some drinks at the bar under the open sky. Smooth live music created the perfect mood for a successful evening, to finish off this special day.
