Danfoss India’s plant in Chennai is engineering tomorrow’s India. Let’s see how.
As one enters inside the campus of Danfoss India at Oragadam, Chennai, one thing goes unnoticed is the solar panels. This campus is a LEED Platinum rated facility with an on ground solar installation and has a focus on R&D. It also houses an application lab. Speaking on the facility Ravichandran Purushothaman, President, Danfoss India says, “The focus of this centre is to design and innovate products for climate and energy for both India and outside market. The campus in India is an investment worth $100 million, which we completed about two and a half years back. With this campus in place, we moved away from just a sales drives subsidiary to R&D and innovations driven entity.”
Why Chennai is chosen for establishing the facility? He explains by saying, “There are quite a few universities here such as IIT Madras. And we work closely with universities. This strengthens our business.” He further mentions that the employees come from all corners of the country. He fondly adds, “It’s a little India here. We have people working here from all nooks and corners of the country. And the advantage that it adds to the company is such diversity culminates various ways of thinking. And this potpourri of thinking further helps our business grow.”
