Imperial Auto Industries Acquires SBR, Expands German Footprint

Imperial Auto Industries Limited (IAI), one of the oldest auto parts makers in India, has recently acquired SB Rohrform- und Schlauchtechnik GmbH in Pleidelsheim, Germany, and will convert it into its technical development and manufacturing location for European car, engine and truck OEMs.

IAI is India’s largest integrated manufacturer and assembler of fluid transmission products covering all spectrums that include flexible high-pressure assemblies, metal tubular assemblies, low-pressure hose assemblies and rubber components. Established in 1969, it manufactures products for the passenger car, commercial vehicle, construction & agricultural equipment and two- & three-wheeler industries.

S B Rohrform is in the business of tubes and lines since 1997, and has worked as a primary path development supplier for several passenger car and Tier-1 companies in Germany. Located in Pleidelsheim with 30 minutes access to Stuttgart and technical headquarters of many OEMs, SBR will be one of the key locations as IAI expands its footprint in the German market.

The new facility will see expansion in prototype and series production with warehousing capability in the near future to meet supply chain expectations in the European Union. This 100% acquisition by Imperial Auto in Germany will complement its strategy in Indianapolis (USA) and 19 manufacturing locations in India for producing best-in-class products at highly competitive pricing for global OEMs.

SBR will fit well in Imperial Auto India’s plan to expand their market share in European Automotive segment by providing an aggressive and faster prototype product development cycle at a competitive commercial advantage from the rest of their European and American competitors.

IAI has been exporting to German automotive companies, for the last couple of years. Upon asking what strategic growth does the company envisage going forward, Tarun Lamba, CEO of Imperial Auto Industries stated, “We see a growing opportunity with other OEMs in Germany, who are looking at sourcing components from India. This acquisition helps us engage better with the customers and develop products which can be productionized in India, in the long run.” He remarked that this will be the company’s footing in the German passenger car market and will also give them a better visibility into the future of the car industry in India.

Tarun is optimistic that the acquisition will give IAI a better visibility of what is happening in the Western passenger car market such as use of alternate fuels, emission norms and so on. "It also helps us deal with high performance and high speed cars, which will be the future of the Indian industry as well," he explains.

Although the acquisition is focused on passenger cars, Imperial Auto's exposure to the truck & construction equipment industry combined with this acquisition will help them engage better with truck manufacturers & construction equipment manufacturers.

KNOW YOUR BODY PARTS: The Liver The liver is a vital organ located in the right upper abdomen, playing a crucial role in metabolism, detoxification, and digestion. It’s the largest solid organ in the body and is responsible for filtering blood, maintaining blood sugar levels, regulating clotting, and synthesizing essential proteins. The liver also stores energy, removes toxins, and produces bile, which aids in digestion Liver functions: · Metabolism and Detoxification: The liver processes nutrients from the blood, breaks down and balances them, and creates essential substances for the body. It detoxifies harmful substances like drugs and alcohol, converting them into less toxic forms for excretion. The liver plays a role in the metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. It stores glycogen (a form of glucose) and vitamins, releasing them when the body needs them. · Digestion: The liver produces bile, which is stored in the gallbladder and released into the small intestine to help digest fats. Bile also helps in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. · Blood Regulation: The liver regulates blood sugar levels by storing and releasing glucose. It synthesizes clotting factors, which are essential for blood clotting. It removes old red blood cells and processes bilirubin, a byproduct of red blood cell breakdown. · Other Functions: The liver plays a role in immunity, helping to fight off infections. It produces proteins that are involved in the immune response. The liver also stores iron and other essential minerals. Frequently Asked Questions About The Liver · What are the first signs of a bad liver? The initial signs of liver problems can be vague and subtle, often including fatigue, nausea, and loss of appetite. As the liver’s condition worsens, more specific symptoms may emerge, such as jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), itchy skin, dark urine, and light-colored stools. Abdominal pain, especially in the upper right quadrant, can also indicate liver issues. · Where do you feel liver pain? Liver pain is typically felt in the upper right abdomen, just beneath the rib cage. It can manifest as a dull, throbbing pain, a stabbing sensation, or a general feeling of discomfort in that area. In some cases, liver pain might be felt as an ache in the right shoulder or back. · What does liver pain feel like? How liver pain feels can vary from person to person, depending on the cause. However, most people often develop one or more of the following symptoms: Dull, persistent aches in the upper abdomen A feeling of fullness or bloating Sharp, stabbing pains that come and go Tenderness when the upper abdomen is touched · What is the best way to cleanse your liver? If you haven’t been working out, start indulging in a regular exercise regime to allow the toxins to come out of your body. Yoga, going running, hitting the gym, or a simple sauna session can also prove effective. If you want a natural liver cleanse, sweating is the way to go. · How to know if the liver is swollen? What are the symptoms of an enlarged liver? You likely won’t notice an enlarged liver on your own. In some severe cases, you might notice a feeling of bloating or fullness in your belly or an ache in your upper right abdomen. · What is the best drink to flush your liver? Many citrus fruits, including lemon, can be added to water to help stimulate and flush out the liver. Lemons are high in nutrients like vitamin C and antioxidants
