BEUMER Group, a global leader in intralogistics and material handling solutions, today announced the establishment of a new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Jhajjar, marking a significant expansion of the company’s footprint in India. The new plant will serve as a strategic hub for producing advanced material handling systems for customers across airports, logistics, e-commerce, cement, and other industrial sectors.
The Jhajjar facility underscores BEUMER Group’s long-term commitment to the Indian market, which continues to see strong demand for automated handling solutions driven by rapid growth in manufacturing, warehousing, and digital commerce. The plant will manufacture a range of technologies including high-speed sortation systems, conveyor systems, airport baggage handling equipment, and components for bulk material handling—helping India build world-class supply chain and infrastructure capabilities.
Construction of the facility is underway, with commissioning scheduled for 2026. Once operational, the plant is expected to significantly increase BEUMER Group’s domestic production capacity, reduce lead times for Indian customers, and enhance the company’s ability to deliver large-scale turnkey projects with greater localization. The Jhajjar site will also integrate advanced automation, energy-efficient systems, and strict quality protocols in line with BEUMER Group’s global manufacturing standards.
The plant is also expected to create new employment opportunities in engineering, operations, quality management, and supply chain roles. BEUMER Group plans to work closely with local suppliers and partners to build a strong ecosystem that supports the full lifecycle of its material handling solutions.
Speaking on the occasion, Shrivallabh Goyal, Chief Executive Officer, Reliance MET City, said, “We are pleased to welcome BEUMER Group to MET City’s world-class industrial ecosystem. Their decision to set up a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility here underscores the strong confidence global enterprises have in MET City’s robust infrastructure, strategic location, and investor-friendly environment. This milestone further reinforces our vision of developing India’s most advanced and sustainable industrial township.”
Highlighting the significance of the development, Nitin Vyas, CEO – BEUMER Group Cluster ASIA, remarked, “BEUMER has consistently invested in India over the years. In 2011, we took a major step by acquiring an Indian SME, followed by the inauguration of our modern 4,228-square-metre office in Gurugram in 2023. Today, we mark another important milestone with the inauguration of this state-of-the-art manufacturing facility, built on a 42,508 sqm plot at Reliance MET City.”
Mr Vyas went on to say “When the need arose to relocate from our earlier facility, Reliance MET City emerged as the clear choice—a rapidly developing industrial hub in North India that truly offers a ‘plug-and-play’ ecosystem for global companies. This factory will not only cater to the Indian market but will also serve BEUMER customers worldwide, delivering the quality and excellence we are known for. Completing this project in just 15 months, from land identification to inauguration, is a remarkable achievement. This vision could not have been realised without the strong support of the Reliance MET City team under the leadership of SV Goyal.”
Sharing his perspective, Rudolf Hausladen, CEO, BEUMER Group, said, “India’s economic growth has been steady and resilient, and BEUMER is proud to contribute to this journey. As India is set to become the world’s third-largest air passenger market, BEUMER continues to lead in baggage handling system technology. We are also strengthening our leadership in minerals and mining systems by delivering innovative and sustainable solutions.”
He Added, “In the cement sector, BEUMER remains the market leader in cement packing plant technology, offering energy-efficient systems that support India’s infrastructure development. Our confidence in India extends beyond its market potential—we strongly believe in its talent. This is why BEUMER is committed to developing India as our Global Capability Centre.”
The newly inaugurated BEUMER facility will cater to the company’s expanding demand across India and international markets, enabling faster deliveries, greater customisation, and seamless integration with the region’s rapidly evolving industrial supply chain. With this investment, BEUMER Group reinforces its position as a trusted provider of high-performance handling systems and strengthens its readiness to support India’s rapidly evolving logistics and infrastructure landscape.
