Italy’s SME Ekoplant floats Indian subsidiary

To tap into the rapidly growing Indian ferrous and non-ferrous metals processing industry and stricter air quality monitoring norms, Milan-headquartered SME Ekoplant has set up shop in the country, floating a 100% wholly-owned subsidiary Eko Air Filtration India Private Limited (EAFIPL). “For Indian industries using combustible processes and gaseous emissions, finding the right technology that enables them to meet legally stipulated air pollution norms within acceptable limits has been a headache for long,” SME Ekoplant sales director Antonio Zocch tells Mining Weekly Online.
