Saint-Gobain to build a new flat glass plant in India

Glass and building materials maker Saint-Gobain has announced plans to build a new flat glass plant in India. This latest investment will be located in the North of India, about 65 km away from Delhi. The plant will operate a very large float line, with a capacity of 300 KT/year; it should come on stream in the first quarter of 2010. The site chosen will, in the future, enable the group to establish a new large glassmaking complex similar to that of Chennai.

The total investment cost is in the order of €100 million. This project comes on top of the other capital expenditures in flat glass planned by Saint-Gobain in Poland, Egypt and Colombia.
