 After almost 27 years in India, and since 2010, as a 100 per cent subsidiary of LESER GmbH & Co. KG and the recent progress in the development and expansion of the Fainger LESER factory, it was time for an update of the name too: Since January 28, “Fainger LESER” is “LESER India”. “LESER is a progressing safety valve company for a progressing country with German technology made for India,” said Neeraj Mangal, CEO of LESER India.
LESER India as a subsidiary has been quite successful on the Indian market in the past 27 years: more than 180,000 safety valves have been installed in India and LESER has important pre- qualifications from leading companies such as EIL, ONGC and BPCL. The expansion of the product portfolio manufactured in India underlines this future-oriented approach.
