The FirstLine production facility is specially designed to conform to the highest industry standards, exclusively producing components for healthcare applications. Datwyler manufactures pharmaceutical rubber components such as vial stoppers or syringe plungers in a fully integrated Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) environment. The company’s most complex rubber components are vial and syringe components from the Omniflex family, which prevent any interaction with the drugs due to their total fluoropolymer coating. The first state-of-the-art FirstLine production site is in Alken, Belgium. The FirstLine plant in India will be the first facility outside Europe and simultaneously Datwyler’s most modern production site. Spread over an area of 24,000 sq metre, the facility will be integrated in the existing premise and will operate in 2017. The site will also offer additional 24,000 sq metre for future growth. The new facility is a major investment and part of the company’s commitment to India and the Asian markets.
How will this project work in line with PM Modi's 'Make in India' initiative? The company has a record to grow inorganically and the Satara plant will be the first greenfield project. Do you plan to quit/sideline the inorganic way to grow?
