Commercial, industrial and residential door maker Shakti Hormann is setting up a new manufacturing plant for wooden doors in Jaipur, Rajasthan, with Rs. 175 crore investment.
Spread across 20 acres, the 2 lakh sq ft facility will be the second plant of the company that since 2012 has been operating as a subsidiary of German family owned firm Hormann.
The plant will have the capacity to make 1.30 lakh doors per annum, Shakti Hormann MD Shashidar Reddy said. Staying close to customers in North India was one of the key factors behind the decision to set up the greenfield facility. It will help save time and freight charges, on moving products from the existing plant in Hyderabad, while ensuring competitiveness of the company.
