Manufacturing Journey 

Since our 1940s roots making ice candy machines in Mumbai, India, Blue Star has been synonymous with manufacturing excellence. This dedication continued with the establishment of our Thane, India factory in the 1960s.   

While others retreated in the late 1990s, we doubled down on manufacturing. This commitment led to the establishment of our state-of-the-art Dadra, India, factory in 1997, leveraging expertise from Rheem, USA.  

The success of Dadra paved the way for further expansion. Cutting-edge factories in Himachal Pradesh, Wada, and Ahmedabad followed elevating our operational standards and product quality.

Our facilities have always adapted to market needs. The 2005 HP plant responded to the growing room air conditioner demand, while Wada's 2008 expansion diversified our product range, drawing on the innovative spirit of our Thane, India beginnings.

This growth mindset led to a specialised HP facility in 2011 and an enhanced refrigeration segment in Ahmedabad, India, by 2012. These expansions catered to diverse sectors, solidifying our position as a comprehensive solution provider.   

Today, with seven ISO 9001-2015 certified plants, Blue Star remains a leader in manufacturing. We offer a vast range of air conditioning and refrigeration products and are dedicated to continuously advancing our facilities, prioritising excellence, and industry leadership.
