In a major step towards strengthening its manufacturing footprint in India, IGI Corp has officially announced the expansion of its Bangalore facility to over 50,000 square feet.
This expansion comes as a response to the growing demand for high-performance, certified fire protection systems across the healthcare, aviation, and industrial sectors. The new facility will house advanced laser-cutting machinery, automated bending lines, and a dedicated laboratory for hardware compatibility testing.
Supporting India's Growing Infrastructure
The increased capacity will allow IGI to significantly reduce lead times for large-scale projects, including upcoming international airports and high-density industrial corridors. Every component produced in the new unit will adhere to strict international standards for fire resistance and acoustic insulation.
"Our mission has always been to bridge the gap between fabrication and engineering. This expansion is a testament to our commitment to delivering accountability in fire protection."
Advanced Testing Laboratory
One of the key features of the new plant is the integrated testing laboratory. Here, we will conduct rigorous endurance tests on fire-rated assemblies, ensuring that every door, frame, and hardware component operates seamlessly as a single, certified unit.
Job Creation and Local Impact
The expansion is also expected to create over 100 new technical roles within the region, ranging from precision engineers to certified quality control specialists. IGI Corp continues to invest in local talent, providing specialized training in fire safety engineering and building compliance.
