Penetron continues to expand production in the rapidly growing Indian market. With the inauguration of its fourth plant facility at the company’s Salem campus in Tamil Nadu in Southern India, Penetron manufactures a range of crystalline waterproofing products, including concrete admixtures and grouts, waterstops, liquid sealers, and most recently, microbial treatment products such as waste degraders and bio-fertilizers.
"The expansion of our production capacity in India enables Penetron to meet the increasing demand in a key Asian market. This positions Penetron for continued growth in a market characterized by urbanization and population increase," stated Robert Revera, President and CEO of The Penetron Group.
By ramping up production capacity at its Salem site, Penetron is expanding its supply capacity across the southern regions of the subcontinent and beyond. The completed fourth stage of construction adds state-of-the-art manufacturing lines, as well as administrative space, product laboratories, warehousing, and logistics.
Suresh K. Iyer, Director of Penetron India adds: “Our most recent expansion marks more than just additional square footage — it signals Penetron’s commitment to meeting the rapidly evolving needs of the Indian construction industry.”
Poised for substantial growth
India's construction sector is supported by significant government initiatives and private investment in logistics and warehousing. These are critical sectors within India's construction industry, driven by rapid urbanization and the need for more efficient supply chain networks. India's real estate sector is also set to expand significantly, with initiatives to alleviate urban housing shortages and enhance living standards across the country.
Positioned for continued growth: The completion of the 4th construction stage at the Penetron production facility in Salem, India provides much-needed capacity to supply the Southern Asia market.
