Maxcess opens manufacturing facility in India

The factory will start production in January 2025 with the Fife-500 Max Web Guiding System.

Maxcess has established a manufacturing facility in India to produce its Fife guiding product line, starting with the Fife-500 Max Web Guiding System, in January 2025. This development highlights the company’s commitment to improving its operations in India and meeting the industry's increasing demands.

Establishing a local manufacturing facility is a significant step forward for Maxcess India. As the market for automated web handling solutions expands, local manufacturing will bolster the company’s ability to meet the increasing demand and significantly reduce customer lead times.

‘This initiative to manufacture the Fife Guiding products in India is incredibly meaningful for us,’ said Niraj Muni, general manager of Maxcess India. ‘With the rapid growth of the Indian market, local manufacturing allows us to support our customers with cost-effective solutions better and enhanced local support. Being closer to our customers means we can respond more quickly to their needs and provide tailored solutions that drive their success.’

Odd Joergenrud, CEO of Maxcess, added: ‘The Fife-500 Max, known for its precision, accuracy, and reliability in guiding applications, will be assembled using state-of-the-art technology and processes that adhere to Maxcess' high-quality standard. By leveraging local resources and expertise, Maxcess aims to foster innovation and improve the overall customer experience in India. Furthermore, this local manufacturing initiative is expected to create job opportunities within the region, contributing to the local economy and reinforcing Maxcess' commitment to corporate social responsibility.’
