Husky Technologies says it is reinforcing its ongoing 25-year commitment to India with expanded facilities, technology innovations and service enhancements designed to support the country’s growth as a global sustainability provider. The company commemorated its efforts with a two-day customer event at its Chennai campus that took place March 20-21, hosted by Husky’s regional leaders and senior executives. 

“As we welcomed customers to our Chennai campus, we weren’t just celebrating 25 years of working together, we were demonstrating our intensified commitment to India’s future,” says Bradley Selleck, Husky CEO. “Our customers in this region have expressed a need for responsive partners who are closer, faster, speak their native language and can deliver innovative solutions enabling them to be more competitive. We’ve listened and the investments we’re developing deliver on these needs.”

Husky’s presence in India has grown significantly since selling its first system in the country in 1999. The company followed up by opening a flagship sales and service office in 2001, followed in 2009 with the groundbreaking of its Chennai manufacturing facility. In May 2023, Husky kicked off the next phase of expansion which culminated in the opening of a new Delhi office in November 2024. The company has now established additional capabilities in India, including a regional proactive monitoring center, enhanced service center, packaging development center, parts distribution center and a learning academy. 

Husky says that India’s sustainability mandates — which require 30% recycled plastic content in packaging by 2026 and 60% by 2029 — create both challenges and opportunities for regional producers. The company’s expanded presence supports customers in navigating these requirements through circular economy solutions. 

“India has the foundation to emerge as a global leader in sustainable packaging with its unmatched scale, culture of innovation, forward-thinking policies and unique socioeconomic conditions,” says Robert Domodossola, Husky’s president of systems and tooling. “The circular economy is the solution for balancing waste management with essential packaging needs. Our innovative technologies, packaging design expertise, and experience with processing recycled PET offer solutions that enable producers to meet recycled content requirements while achieving high performance and quality standards.” 

Husky says its strategic focus on India recognizes the country’s potential as a global model for sustainable manufacturing, demonstrating how countries can maintain economic growth while embracing circular economy principles.
