A third flat glass production facility (the Group’s fifth float in India) and a second coater for the construction market will be built on this site.The plant will produce premium high-performance, energy efficient glass using leading-edge technologies which contribute to the environment protection.



This initiative bolsters Saint-Gobain’s position in flat glass as leader of the fast-growing Indian market, and is in line with the Group’s strategy to increase the share of its industrial assets located outside Western Europe.
