“We have skill, talent, discipline and the desire to do something. We want to give the world an opportunity that—Come Make in India,” the Prime Minister of India, Mr Narendra Modi quoted during his maiden speech while unveiling the historical initiative on August 15, 2014.
The ‘Make in India’ initiative was launched with the aim of making India self-reliant as well as a favourable market for global investment. At Viva ACP, we strongly believe in the capabilities of the manufacturing industry, in producing world-class Aluminium Composite Panels by leveraging the best of technology, expertise, and labour. Let’s discover how Viva has emerged as the pioneer in the facade industry by leveraging the power of manufacturing in India.

‘Make In India’ Initiative: Industries in Focus

The ‘Make in India’ scheme was announced against a backdrop when India was among the “Fragile Five”. The Government of India showcased 25 sectors with a dedicated plan to attract internal and foreign investment. Being one of the major 25 industries in focus, the ‘construction’ sector was brought into the limelight.
It is no secret that infrastructure is key in driving the overall growth and development of any country. Employing close to 51 million people, the construction industry is the second largest sector in the country. Consequently, this opens up the doors of profitable investment in the sector.

Viva ACP: Pioneering ACP Sheet Manufacturing in India

According to reports, India will have more than 40% of its population living in urban areas by 2030 (and 50% by 2050). Needless to say, the construction industry is likely to get an impetus in the coming years. Architectural materials such as architectural ACP sheets are an important element in the contemporary construction industry.
Viva is one of the leading manufacturers of Aluminium Composite Panel in India. Also known as ACPs, these new-age materials are widely used in designing building facades, signages, claddings, and front elevations.
Made using thin layers of Aluminium sheets bonded to a non-aluminium core, ACP sheets form the ‘skin’ of contemporary buildings in the urban landscape. What makes Aluminium Composite Panels truly exceptional in contemporary construction projects are their low weight, sturdiness, versatility, and aesthetic quotient.
