Kannan Venkatraman, Mold-Masters MD, India, hosted an opening function and Hans Hagelstein, Mold-Masters Vice President and General Manager for Europe, Middle East, Africa, and India, performed the traditional ribbon cutting ceremony officially opening the facility.
Hagelstein commented, "As India's injection molding market continues to grow, so too will the complexity of the molded products the region produces. With complex products come increasingly complex molds and an increased reliance on hot runners, which is where Milacron's Mold-Masters brand excels. Whether the mold is simple or incredibly complex, we produce hot runner systems that meet these individual needs, ensuring efficiency, accuracy and reliability."
Milacron's Coimbatore, India team has grown from a small team to over 350 employees today. The hot runner facility expansion is one of the latest milestones for Milacron, which has continued to push the boundaries of possibilities in plastics with breakthrough products from leading brands including Milacron, Mold-Masters, DME, Ferromatik, Uniloy and CIMCOOL.
