Ammann India has rolled out its first ABG Pave ABG 5420 Tracked Paver (Tier 3) from its newly commissioned assembly line at the Ditasan manufacturing facility in Gujarat. The milestone marks the integration of the ABG Paver business into Ammann India, reinforcing the company’s commitment to the ‘Make in India for the World’ initiative.

The launch ceremony was led by Bernd Holz, Executive Vice President, ABG General Management, and Mr Dheeraj Panda, Managing Director, Ammann India, alongside senior leadership. The new paver is tailored for both Indian and international markets, aligning with evolving demands driven by initiatives like Bharatmala and PM Gati Shakti.

Designed for Tier 3 emission compliance, the ABG 5420 addresses the growing need for efficient, reliable, and sustainable road construction equipment. The model will also be exported to Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Africa, expanding Ammann’s global footprint.

Ammann India also inaugurated a dedicated ABG warehouse at the same site. Spanning over 10,000 sq ft with an additional 2,000+ sq ft for staging, the facility features an advanced racking system supporting up to 1,200 kg per shelf and 8-level stacking for 1,800 SKUs. The setup enhances spare parts availability, optimises material flow, and strengthens aftermarket support.

Commenting on the developments, Dheeraj Panda said, “The roll-out of the first ABG Paver from Ditasan and the commissioning of a dedicated warehouse are strong testaments to our commitment to localisation, operational excellence, and customer service. These milestones will play a pivotal role in accelerating our ABG growth journey in India while boosting our capabilities as a global manufacturing and export hub.”
