The contract has been awarded by the Indian company Indo Rama Synthetics Ltd., one of the largest polyester producers in the subcontinent. The project represents a total investment of EUR 150 million, of which Zimmer's contract has a value in the middle double-digit million Euro range. The project is being supported by Indian subsidies and export loans from German banks.
