Mitsubishi Electric Opens New Manufacturing Plant for Factory Automation Systems in Maharashtra
Mitsubishi Electric’s FA systems
business in India began in the mid-1990s, and since acquiring a local
manufacturer of FA systems in 2012, the company has continued to strengthen its
local business structure by establishing a local engineering team, expanding
service and support capabilities, and in 2013, starting local manufacturing of
products.
The new two-floor, 15,400
square-meter factory is built on 40,000 square meters of land near Pune,
Maharashtra, and will help expand Mitsubishi Electric’s production capabilities
to meet local demand for products, and contribute to the “Make in India”
initiative promoted by the Indian government.
In addition, the new factory
incorporates various features aimed at achieving carbon neutrality. Carbon
dioxide emissions are reduced through the use of highly efficient air
conditioning systems and LED lighting equipment, and by reusing wastewater
through underground filtration treatment and greening, the new factory meets
its initial sustainable development goals (SDGs).
