Domar starts supplies to Indian OEMs

Starting in 1996, Domar produces and sells mudguards, mud-flaps and assembling elements for industrial vehicles. Initially, the company had been devoting itself to the production of metal mudguards, a requirement of the Italian market at that time. Later, following the recent trends of European OEMs, Domar has started the production of mudguards in plastic.

In India, currently most vehicles use steel mudguards. For export vehicles the trucks are fitted with plastic mudguards and mud flaps. Domar is planning to increase business in India but there are no immediate plans of setting up a manufacturing facility, says Mr. Angelo Mercadante, Sales Department, Domar S.r.l.

Asked is there is a plan to set up a manufacturing facility, Mr. Mercadante says, the products offered by Domar are injection moulded plastic hence the investment is very high. The volume in India doesn’t justify setting-up a manufacturing facility.
