“India represents a strategic cornerstone of our global operations, particularly in the defence sector. We are here for more than just producing for the Indian market – we are here to grow with this country and shape the tremendous opportunities ahead together with our partners on the ground.” A Representative of RENK Gears Private Ltd. (RENK India)
RENK Group AG, a leading supplier of drive solutions for military and civil applications, has officially inaugurated its new production facility in Shoolagiri, India. This strategic investment represents a significant milestone in RENK’s commitment to the Indian market and reinforces the company’s position as a key partner in India’s defence modernization and industrial growth.
“This facility is more than just a production location – it is a statement of trust, partnership, and future ambition,” said a representative of RENK Gears Private Ltd. (RENK India). “India represents a strategic cornerstone of our global operations, particularly in the defence sector. We are here for more than just producing for the Indian market – we are here to grow with this country and shape the tremendous opportunities ahead together with our partners on the ground.”
The new facility enables RENK to deliver cutting-edge solutions through local manufacturing, providing faster response times, greater cost efficiency, and full compliance with localization requirements. RENK’s dual-focus strategy includes “local-for-local” solutions for Indian industries, such as gear units for cement mills, gearboxes for the power and “new energy” sectors, and specialized couplings – while supporting “local-for-global” manufacturing with Indian-produced couplings destined for worldwide deployment.
As a trusted partner of the Indian Armed Forces, RENK has contributed to landmark programs including the domestic Arjun tank and INS Vikrant aircraft carrier. The company is actively supporting future defence initiatives, including a Light Tank program and naval opportunities. This expansion solidifies RENK’s global footprint, making RENK India a strong and reliable part of the RENK production network.
