Painting technology as a common strength: Dürr has brought on board a competent distribution partner for the Indian market in Patvin. Together, the two companies provide application technology and robotics for the 2-wheeler/3-wheeler and agricultural machinery industries. A partnership agreement between Dürr and Patvin was signed.
Dürr is a worldwide leader in automotive painting and sealing. As in the automotive sector, Dürr also covers the entire spectrum of paint application in general industry with its application products. “Our customers from the target industries can purchase both individual products and standardised application systems via our constantly growing distribution network,” explains Holger Beiersdorfer, head of the industrial products division at Dürr Systems AG in Bietigheim-Bissingen (Germany).
Customers and integrators can meet their component needs from a single source. The focus here is on the five product categories ‘pumping and fluid handling equipment’, ‘conventional application technology (spray guns)’, ‘two-component systems’, ‘solutions for electrostatic application’, and “paint robots/ paint machines’.
The solutions on offer are specifically designed to increase production efficiency and reduce VOC emissions and material consumption. The installed systems therefore increase productivity, improve quality, save material, and at the same time consume less energy and reduce environmental emissions.
Under the partnership concept, Dürr supplies the application technology and Patvin integrates the products and systems at the customer. The jointly defined target markets for distribution and marketing include both the market for two-/three-wheelers as well as the area of agricultural machines. The partners also intend to strengthen cooperation for other product areas such as paint supply systems. Dürr acts as a system integrator for the automotive and add-on part industries and is also continuously expanding its expertise in India.
