Backed by innovation, design and technological advancement, we are geared to cater to this demand, said Sivasubramanian Natarajan, Managing Director at Thyssenkrupp Industries India.

Buoyed by ambitious infrastructure development plans, thyssenkrupp will make India a manufacturing hub for its crushing and screening equipment business. “Thyssenkrupp Industries India will become a manufacturing hub for global standard machines business,” said Sivasubramanian.
