Sagar Hemade, Managing Director, Tenneco India, said: “Today’s event celebrates Tenneco’s commitment to quality and innovation in products, processes and services. We are proud to commission such a facility that improves shock absorber quality and performance while improving our production process and shortening our time to market.”
DynaChrome ® is a state-of-the-art, fully integrated and closed looped plating system with a high rate of chrome deposition. The process is capable of plating the rod to the required size and it does not require any post chrome grinding operation. This reduces the consumption of chrome and conserves energy.
Tenneco’s piston rod plant in Hosur employs 98 people in the production of piston rods for shock absorbers and struts. The 2.100 sqm facility supplies components for major domestic and international vehicle manufacturers.
The ceremony was attended by chief guests Mr. Sudam Maitra, Chief Operating Officer (Supply Chain), Maruti Suzuki, Mr. Hari Nair, Chief Operating Officer, Tenneco Inc. and Mr. T. P. Rajesh, District Collector.
