Could you please brief us about some of your recently launched hydraulic tools in India?
Over the past three years, Enerpac has developed new industrial tools with an expanded range that now includes more portable pumps, new bar and chain cutters, together with torque wrenches and longer reach lock-grip pullers. Our recent launched new products are:

The government of India has announced big investment plans for infrastructure development (including National Infrastructure Pipeline).

How will these initiatives propel the hydraulic tools market?
More pipeline projects will result in increased demand for equipment such as hydraulic torque wrenches, clamshell cutters, hot tapping machines, portable pumps, and various flange tools. For bridges and other construction projects, you can expect to see more use of heavy lifting hydraulic equipment, such as jack up systems, synchronous hoists, gantries, and strand jacks.

How is the increase in modernisation and automation in the Indian manufacturing industry generating more demand for Enerpac’s hydraulic tools?
Enerpac believes in ‘Endless innovation results in the right tool’. Companies are adopting latest technologies to increase productivity. Enerpac is pushing the industry forward with a wide range of advanced industrial tools and services. We are continuously investing in innovation and upgrading to latest technologies to help our customers with efficient and effective ways to perform jobs.

What kinds of emerging trends are you seeing in the hydraulic tools industry?
Improved battery technology in recent years has made it easier to work in remote locations where access to power is difficult. The latest battery-driven hydraulic pumps now have the capacity to power a wide range of hydraulic tools, such as cutters, torque wrenches, cylinders, nut splitters, and spreaders. Using a battery-driven hydraulic pump also eliminates the need for trailing power cords which reduces trip hazards, therefore enhancing operator safety. They are also quieter and less polluting than fossil fuel alternatives.

What are your growth plans in India?
We have an ambitious growth strategy centred around key pillars of expansion in targeted vertical markets, digital transformation and customer driven innovation.
