Ansell Limited announced it will invest $80 million over the next three years to build a new manufacturing facility in Tamil Nadu, India. The facility will have the capability to produce a wide range of products, with an initial focus on surgical and life science gloves for the Indian domestic market and for export. Ansell's surgical and life sciences businesses are core to the company's differentiated growth strategy. The facility will be designed and built in line with Indian Green Building Council criteria to minimise water and energy use, maximise renewable energy use and meet zero liquid discharge and as such it will set a new benchmark at Ansell for sustainable manufacturing. It will create important diversification in Ansell's manufacturing footprint and create significant additional capacity to supply its industry leading portfolio of surgical and life science protection solutions to customers globally.
