Global leader in plastic rigid packaging Alpla is setting up a world class mould shop through its Indian arm in Pashamylaram here.
The facility, on which the investment is ₹60 crore, will only be the third such for the Austrian major — the other two are in Austria and Germany. The decision to establish here reflects the confidence in techno-commercial skills of Indian professionals to support high end technical solutions from ideation to design and execution, Alpla India said on Saturday.
Besides the tool room, Alpla India has set up a Dual Education Centre with an investment of ₹10 crore here. The company’s investment in Pashamylaram has crossed ₹500 crore, it said in a release.
