Dinex expands its footprint in India with a new manufacturing and engineering facility in Pune. The site supports local OEM programs and global customers with advanced exhaust and aftertreatment solutions designed to meet current and upcoming emission standards.
Dinex established its presence in Chennai, India, in 2020, driven by strong opportunities in the OEM automotive sector and the long-term potential of the Indian market. This presence enabled closer engagement with customers and strengthened Dinex’s position within the local ecosystem.
Building on this foundation, Dinex expanded its footprint in 2025 with a new manufacturing and engineering facility in Pune. Strategically located in one of India’s most prominent automotive and industrial hubs, Pune offers close proximity to leading OEMs, a strong supplier ecosystem, skilled engineering talent, and well-developed logistics connectivity.
This makes Pune a natural choice over other regions, enabling faster collaboration, efficient supply chain integration, and stronger alignment with OEM program timelines. The Pune site therefore represents a critical step in advancing Dinex’s OEM journey in India – transitioning from market presence to localized, scalable capability.
The facility serves as a strategic hub supporting both domestic and international OEM programs, combining global engineering expertise with local manufacturing excellence. Spread across 35,000 m², with expansion potential up to 50,000 m², Dinex Pune is designed to deliver high-performance exhaust and aftertreatment solutions across on-road, off-road, and industrial applications. Currently, the Pune facility supports core manufacturing capabilities including canning, mixers, and clamps, enabling Dinex to deliver reliable, high-quality solutions. These capabilities already enhance customer support through improved responsiveness, localized manufacturing, and reduced lead times for OEM programs.
As part of its next phase of expansion, Dinex Pune is significantly strengthening its capabilities. By 2nd half of 2026, the site will include production lines for catalyst technologies and advanced pipe systems, covering both insulated and non-insulated hot-end and tailpipe solutions. In addition, a dedicated line for Dinex’s patented DiFlex™ leak-tight decoupling technology is being established. This expansion will enable full end-to-end system integration within India, significantly improving speed, cost efficiency, and solution ownership for customers.
The Pune facility is being developed to meet today’s stringent emission standards while being fully prepared for next generation regulatory requirements, including evolving norms such as BS VII / Euro 7, as well as future mobility technologies including hydrogen and alternative fuels. These capabilities are supported by Dinex’s global R&D ecosystem, including the Catalyst Lab in Germany and the Test Center in Denmark, enabling faster innovation cycles and robust validation.
The Pune facility will be in an ongoing expansion and will in corporation with other Dinex facilities in the global Dinex ecosystem be able to offer end-to-end solutions covering:
The plant operates with advanced manufacturing processes and stringent quality controls aligned with automotive industry requirements and Dinex global standards.
