History

 

Established in 1960, JAQUAR has carved out a special niche for itself as the India's largest manufacturer and exporter of bath fittings. Powered by extensive product development, backed by state-of-the-art production facilities, and supported by a vast marketing network. Acknowledged as a key innovator in the industry, JAQUAR has revolutionized the designs and utility patterns of bath fittings in the country. At JAQUAR, technology is the prime enabler - the force that drives the company to new heights. JAQUAR has installed the world's most advanced plant and machinery sourced from global leaders.

Constantly keeping abreast of the latest international developments in the industry is an integral part of the JAQUAR tech spirit, and the knowledge derived from this endeavor is channeled into a steady stream of innovation that seeks to give its customers the very best in terms of range, quality and aesthetic appeal. The cutting-edge technology, and the world-class products that emerge from it enable JAQUAR to entrench itself in quality-conscious markets like UK, Switzerland, USA, Canada, Denmark and the Middle East. This uncompromising focus on quality has been internationally recognized - JAQUAR has been awarded the prestigious Fulham Geissler American Award for Quality - received by the likes of Apple, AT&T, Boeing, IBM, Kodak and Xerox in the past.

Jaquar plans facility to make products for German co

C.R. Sukumar

Hyderabad , March 6                                                                               

JAQUAR & Company Limited, the Rs. 2600.000 Millions player in the domestic bath fittings and accessories market, has finalised Rs. 400.000 Millions capital expenditure programme to set up a modern manufacturing unit exclusively to make the products of the German bath fittings major Hansgrohe.

These products include multiple flow showers, shower panels, shower temples, whirlpools and bath fittings.

According to the Director, Marketing, Mr Rajesh Mehra, the company had earlier entered into a marketing alliance with Hansgrohe to introduce bath fittings in new finishes, designs, styles and colour combinations.

The idea was also to provide the Indian customers access to international technology in bath fittings. Jaquar had also tied up with the Swiss major Aquis to roll out its renowned sensor taps and other sensor controlled bath products in the Indian market.

"Hansgrohe is known world over for its incomparable range of shower products. Through this alliance, they have introduced the world's most advanced shower systems such as panels, steam temples, columns and whirlpool systems of Hansgrohe into the Indian market. Keeping in view the growing demand for these products, they have now decided to set up an exclusive manufacturing facility for the Hansgrohe range of shower products in India.

They expect this move to also help us introduce superior quality indigenous components into Hansgrohe products, thereby, bringing down the overall cost of production," Mr. Rajesh Mehra told Business Line.

"They have finalised one more expansion-cum-modernisation programme now, involving a capital outlay of around Rs 250.000 Millions," Mr. Mehra said.

Apart from revamping its existing facilities around New Delhi, Jaquar has also decided to set up a modern plant to produce bath fittings exclusively to the South-East Asian countries.

The new facility, coming up on a 25,000-sq. m. area near New Delhi, would take off by November. This would enable the company increase its production capacity to around 30,000 units per day from the existing 16,000 pieces, he said.
