Hindalco Industries and Blue Star have entered into a partnership to manufacture high-precision copper tubes in India. The move aims to localize production and reduce reliance on imports for the heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC&R) industry.
The partnership will combine Hindalco’s capabilities in non-ferrous metals with Blue Star’s industry experience in air conditioning and refrigeration. The production of these copper tubes is expected to help stabilize the supply chain for manufacturers in India.
A statement from the companies noted that the initiative will focus on manufacturing high-quality copper tubes to support efficiency in the HVAC&R sector.
