ENGEL India records exceptionally high level of orders in the financial year 2009/2010.“ Investments in high-quality machines are constantly increasing in India,” reports Mr. Jitendra Devlia, Manager of ENGEL Machinery India Pvt. Ltd. After the financial and economic crisis, India’s industry continues on track for modernisation. Machine imports are playing a key role in this recovery. In a highly dynamic market environment, ENGEL has developed into a top importer of high quality injection moulding machines. After technical moulding, solutions for the automotive industry are thus the biggest revenue generators in 2010. In addition, major orders were received for caps and closures, a sector in which ENGEL is anticipating strong growth.
ENGEL has been engaged in India for the past 12 years with its own distribution and service subsidiary. More than 800 machines have already been installed. Over 100 new and 200 used machines were sold in 2010 alone. The trend is towards tie-bar-less machines from the ENGEL victory series.
