CERATIZIT Group announces expansions to Kolkata and Bengaluru, strengthening commitment to growth and innovation

The CERATIZIT Group, a high-technology engineering group specialising in cutting tools and hard material solutions, has announced the expansion of its manufacturing facilities in Uluberia, West Bengal, and Bommasandra in Bengaluru, Karnataka. These groundbreaking projects mark a significant step ahead in CERATIZIT’s strategy for growth in India, highlighting the company’s ongoing commitment to the country as a key market and manufacturing centre. By increasing capacity at both locations, CERATIZIT aims to meet the rising demand for cutting tool solutions.

Strengthening local manufacturing and innovation in India
The expansions of the Uluberia and Bommasandra sites reflect the group’s confidence in the capabilities of Indian manufacturing. India is one of CERATIZIT’s fastest-growing markets, and these investments support the strategy of producing locally for both domestic and global customers.


CERATIZIT already operates three production facilities in India, including two in Bengaluru and one in Uluberia. This local presence enables the company to provide high quality, locally manufactured solutions tailored to global industries such as aerospace, automotive, electronics, energy, and general engineering. With additional capacity at Uluberia and Bommasandra, CERATIZIT’s India operations will be better equipped to serve customers with shorter lead times and customized products, as well as supply export orders worldwide.

The expansion projects at Uluberia and Bommasandra emphasise CERATIZIT’s ongoing commitment to sustainable growth in India. These initiatives align with the company’s broader vision to support India’s manufacturing sector. As the expanded facilities become operational in the coming year, CERATIZIT expects further growth in response to increasing demand in the region.
