Rockwell Automation, providing automation solutions to Indian manufacturers across sectors like pharma & life sciences, FMCG, packaging, has announced plans to open a new manufacturing facility in Chennai.
The 98,000-square-foot facility with space for potential expansion will help Rockwell build a more resilient, agile, and sustainable supply chain in the Asia Pacific region and around the globe.
Rockwell is investing in India by expanding its manufacturing presence and building a new factory in Chennai. The facility will be located in the same industrial park as Rockwell's CUBIC manufacturing facility to help maximise supply chain resilience and create additional career opportunities for employees.
"We selected this location because we can create synergies with our existing CUBIC facility and increase agility and productivity in the region," said Dilip Sawhney, Managing Director - India, Rockwell Automation.
The facility in Chennai is expected to open in the first half of 2025 and will employ about 230 workers by the end of the year.
