India’s first auto-robotic plant for aluminium doors & windows begins operations in Surat: Encore-Alcom

Encore-Alcom, prominent aluminium doors and windows manufacturer based in Hyderabad, announced the commencement of operations at its new manufacturing plant in Surat, Gujarat, on Tuesday. This facility, the largest in India for aluminium doors and windows production, is the country’s first to feature automated robotic technology.

Spanning 184,000 square feet, the plant employs 500 people. The company plans to invest INR 60 crores in the facility in phases. Encore has already established a strong presence in wooden door manufacturing, marketing its products under the Encore brand in the south and the Alcom brand in the north.

“We used German technology for the state-of- the-art new plant which has a capacity to produce 35,000 square feet per day. We will showcase our latest and innovative products at AceTech trade fair scheduled from January 24 at Hitex in Hyderabad” said Avuthu Shiva Koti Reddy, founder and Chairman & Managing Director of Encore Woodcrafts. 

To date, the company has successfully completed 3,500 projects, including several in the US, UK, Dubai, and Europe. Shiva Koti Reddy stated that Encore-Alcom has set a record by manufacturing a 20-foot sliding door, the largest in India in both height and width. Encore-Alcom is preparing to expand its global presence with plans to enter the Australian and Middle Eastern markets soon.

 “We manufacture aluminium doors, windows, railings, and glass facades. We are importing high-quality rollers from Slovakia. The future belongs to metal doors. At our new plant, 500 people have got direct and indirect job opportunities. This is our second plant in Surat. We already have a plant in Surat with an area of 60,000 square feet. It has manufacturing capacity of 10,000 square feet per day. Our products are 300 per cent better than those of competing companies. We design and manufacture architectural products that suit the requirements of customers,” said Jayanti Bhai Patola.
