Husky Technologies has announced new investments in its Indian operations, including expanded facilities, technological advancements, and enhanced services. The company hosted a two-day customer event on March 20–21 at its Chennai campus to highlight these developments.
Husky has been active in India since selling its first injection molding system in the country in 1999. It established a flagship sales and service office in 2001, followed by the opening of its Chennai manufacturing facility in 2009. In May 2023, the company began its latest expansion phase, which included the opening of a new Delhi office in November 2024. Additional capabilities now available in India include a regional proactive monitoring center, enhanced service center, packaging development center, parts distribution center, and learning academy.
India’s regulatory requirements for sustainable packaging—mandating 30% recycled plastic content in packaging by 2026 and 60% by 2029—are shaping the market. Husky’s investments aim to support manufacturers in meeting these regulations through solutions for processing recycled PET and improving packaging efficiency.
“Our innovative technologies, packaging design expertise, and experience with processing recycled PET offer solutions that enable producers to meet recycled content requirements while achieving high performance and quality standards,” said Robert Domodossola, Husky’s President of Systems and Tooling.
During the customer event, Husky also previewed its new Advantage+Enterprise solution, which provides enterprise-wide operational insights. The system builds on the company’s existing Advantage+Elite platform, which has been used in more than 1,100 contracts globally.
“Our Advantage+Enterprise solution addresses critical challenges facing manufacturers both in India and globally,” said Tony Black, Husky’s President of Service. “We see that when customers employ the Advantage+ ecosystem across an entire plant or across a multi-factory enterprise, they gain powerful data visibility and enterprise-level insights that they previously never had access to.”
The company stated that its latest investments are designed to enhance service responsiveness and technology adoption for manufacturers in India.
