Eberspaecher Suetrak Bus Climate Control Systems India Pvt. Ltd. (ESI), part of the Eberspaecher Group worldwide, has established its Indian headquarters in Bangalore. The new location, which will be operational from January 2011, will house the production and admin departments. The new plant will provide local source of supply to meet the demand for bus climate control systems in the rapidly expanding Indian market.
Eberspaecher ranks amongst the leading system developers and suppliers of exhaust technology, vehicle heating and bus air-conditioning systems worldwide and is also involved in vehicle electronics and automotive bus systems for electronic networking in the vehicles. Its customers include almost all European and North American, and increasingly more Asian manufacturers of passenger cars and commercial vehicles. In 2009, the group, with approximately 5,300 employees, posted sales of over 1.3 billion Euros.
In Bangalore, Eberspaecher Suetrak will be producing roof AC units as well as split AC units, offering Indian customers a full range of bus air-conditioning systems. The country being one of the world’s fasting growing markets for bus AC systems, this new facility in Southern India is of strategic importance for the company. “Our products make us leaders in the market for bus climate control systems in India. Our objective is to steadily grow our market share in the country over the coming years,” explains Joachim Tosstorff, General Manager of Eberspaecher Suetrak.
“Many of our customers and suppliers as well are based in Southern India. By relocating our Indian headquarters we can now be a competent and strong local partner offering top quality and service for optimum convenience and all types of bus AC systems,” adds Mr. Kanwal Preet Singh, Director of Eberspaecher Suetrak Bus Climate Control Systems India Pvt. Ltd. Apart from production and sales, the company will be offering servicing and repairs, technical advice and training for customers.
The company’s 50 employees in India will be supported by Eberspaecher Suetrak’s German head office in Renningen. The German HQ has worked closely together with its Indian colleagues right from the planning stage, and has supported them in both the process as a whole and in the transfer of knowledge for the new production site.
In June 2010 the Eberspaecher Group acquired the Indian bus AC business from Carrier Corp. (USA) with its head office at Gurgaon. The move positions Eberspaecher Suetrak as a one-stop shop for heating and cooling in the Indian bus market.
