Avery Dennison, a leader in global materials science and manufacturing, is to commence operations in its new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Greater Noida. Through this new facility, the company will be consolidating its manufacturing operations in order to better serve customer demands while optimizing the new technology and leveraging the improved efficiencies. A phased transition will take place for the facility and employees based out of Gurgaon plant over a period of time, as per business requirements. However, the corporate office of the company continues to be in Gurgaon.
Spread over an area of 12 acres, the new state-of-the-art plant will produce technologically-advanced, pressure-sensitive materials for the labeling and packaging industry and would incorporate best practices available across Avery Dennison globally. The new facility, whose land has been allotted by Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA), will be equipped with the latest high speed coating technology and will have state-of-the-art coating and lamination lines, along with high speed sliters and sheeters.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Saurabh Agarwal, senior director and general manager, Label and Packaging Materials, South Asia for Avery Dennison said, “U.P. has emerged as a strategic business location, offering better connectivity and opportunities to serve key customers and markets. The new facility not only enhances our production capacity, but it further strengthens our company’s position in the industry. This move is the culmination of the customer’s increased demand as well as the potential India holds as a region. I’m extremely pleased that this achievement has taken place in the same year Avery Dennison is celebrating 25 years of doing business in India.”
