News Desk, News Nation 360 : The most recognisable and reliable footwear company, Bata India, has made a big step forward in its brand development journey by investing ₹300 million in its Batanagar facility. The company's dedication to superior manufacturing and global competitiveness is reaffirmed by this investment. Installing cutting-edge PUDIP (Polyurethane Direct Injection Process) and IM EVA machinery to manufacture Floatzz and Bata Industrial footwear is the main goal of the investment. Robotic spraying, automated roughing arms, and mould handling procedures are features of these next-generation machines that will improve manufacturing efficiency, accuracy, and product consistency. By strictly maintaining the highest health and safety standards through a strong management structure, the Batanagar factory sets the norm for industrial excellence and gives all of its workers a safe and secure work environment. Batanagar is more than just a production plant; it is a turning point in the industrial history of India and West Bengal. A landmark event that influenced the state's industrial landscape was Thomas Bata's arrival in 1930, which resulted in the founding of the Batanagar township. Through Bata's operations, local manufacturing capacities were transformed, making Bengal a centre for footwear expertise and a major export base. For the area and the country at large, the Batanagar factory's heritage still stands for creativity, fostering community, and industrial advancement. Anjan Kundu, Head – Supply Chain Management, Bata India Limited, stated that their strong dedication to updating their production procedures and maintaining their position as leaders in quality is demonstrated by this investment.

Their activities are strengthened by this growth, which also establishes new standards for the sector.
