Groundbreaking ceremony in India: Feintool celebrates construction
start in Pune
The start of the construction in India marks the
beginning of a further chapter in Feintool's history in a promising
economic region. Feintool’s production in the Pune metropolitan
region is expected to start in summer 2025.
“Feintool System Parts India” consolidates Feintool's strategic
position as an important supplier of high-precision parts in Asian
automotive production with its first Indian production site.
With an initial investment of CHF 15 million, the company is
moving closer to long-standing customers who are already producing
in the region and is, furthermore, reducing the CO2 footprint
thanks to significantly shorter delivery routes.
“With our new production site in Pune, we are continuing
Feintool's success story in Asia. I am particularly pleased to be
building on long-term customer relationships in India and start
producing high-precision components for the automotive sector as
soon as the site is operational.”
Marcel Pernici, President Feintool Asia
Feintool plant in Pune is expected to start producing
high-precision components, such as seat adjusters for various major
automotive manufacturers, as of summer 2025. Feintool is the global
market leader for these fineblanked parts. In the future, the new
site will also enable Feintool to produce further high-precision
steel components geared towards battery and hydrogen-powered
mobility, industry and renewable energies.
“The ground-breaking ceremony in Pune integrates seamlessly
into our expansion plans in India. Alongside the construction of
the new plant, we are recruiting specialists and will train them in
Feintool technologies. I am very confident that Feintool will be
operating successfully in India very soon, and offer our customers
the added value that they have been accustomed to
internationally for decades.”
Tobias Gries, Managing Director Feintool India
