Luxembourg-based International Automotive Components (IAC), a leading global supplier of automotive components and lightweight vehicle solutions, has inaugurated its new state-of-the-art plant in Manesar enhancing its manufacturing and engineering capabilities in India.
The new 5,574-square-meter (60,000-square-foot) Manesar plant consolidates two older operations in near proximity into one manufacturing location.
