To offer advanced composite solutions in India and across the globe

This partnership will enable Arvind AMD to bring down India’s import dependence on products like antenna solutions used in telecommunication, parts and specialty products

Arvind Limited have recently announced a technology partnership with Top Glass Industries S.p.A. (Italy), a global leader in making composite products. The partnership aims at bringing together the world-class technology of Top Glass Industries S.p.A. and the manufacturing capabilities of Arvind's Advanced Materials Division (AMD) to India.

This partnership will give impetus to the Make in India campaign and thus enable Arvind AMD to bring down India's import dependence on products like antenna solutions used in telecommunication, parts and specialty products used in electrical equipment like transformers. Emerging areas like newer construction materials for window frames and blinds, telescopic profiles, etc. will also get a boost with this partnership. In addition to bringing newer capabilities and technologies into the country, this collaboration will help the economy save valuable foreign exchange by significant import substitution.

Top Glass Industries S.p.A: will now be a long-term knowledge partner for Arvind and together, the two will bring significant impact into the competitive telecom and electrical infrastructure market in India.  Further, the partnership with Top Glass will help Arvind enhance its pultrusion technology and introduce new products in the Indian and global markets; thereby enabling both companies to serve their composite customers more effectively. Arvind will also be the licensee of "I Love Composites" trademark of Top Glass. Arvind AMD will now also export its specialty composite products to European markets through Top Glass.
