Doosan Portable Power has opened a new factory in Bangalore, India, with capacity to produce 2,000 portable air compressors and light towers annually.
The compressors and towers will be sold in the domestic market in India, with plans for future production to provide for export to Latin America and South Africa.
“Doddaballapur in Bangalore offers outstanding vendors and manpower that will allow for the manufacture of high quality products,” said J S Kim, managing director and CEO of Doosan India.
“As the market for our products has continued to grow, it has become necessary to have our own facility to meet our customers’ needs.”
The manufacturing facility was opened in 180 days from the time project plans were formulated. More than 100 guests joined Doosan Portable Power employees for the manufacturing launch.
The Doosan Portable Power facility in Bangalore will also house all Doosan India Operations along with Doosan Portable Power manufacturing. Additional plans will include opening a trading warehouse for other Doosan brands, including Doosan excavators, Bobcat machines and Montabert hydraulic breakers.
