CG DE SUB, LLC (CG USA), a wholly owned step-down subsidiary of CG Power and Industrial Solutions Limited, India, has signed an agreement with Flanders Electric Motors Service, LLC (FLANDERS), a global leader in electrical rotating equipment and technology solutions.

Under the agreement, both companies will jointly scale capabilities and expand within the US rail market, focusing on technical excellence, reliability, and continuous improvement.

Mr Amar Kaul, Global CEO and Managing Director of CG, said, “Our association with FLANDERS complements our world-class manufacturing capabilities, enabling us to offer timely and cost-effective solutions to US rail operators. Together, we aim to redefine service standards in the railway sector.”

Kim Weninger, CEO of FLANDERS, added, “Partnering with CG to enter the rail sector aligns perfectly with our legacy in heavy industry and our growing Flanders Motors Business.”

With over eight decades of industry leadership, CG continues to innovate in the railway sector, while FLANDERS brings extensive expertise in motor technology. The collaboration marks a strategic phase of growth for CG in North America and for FLANDERS in the traction motor business, positioning both companies to play a leading role in shaping the future of rail transportation.
