Swan Defence Teams Up with Varex Imaging for India's Inspection Systems

Swan Defence and Heavy Industries Limited (SDHI) has entered into a strategic partnership with Salt Lake City-based Varex Imaging Corporation to manufacture cargo and vehicle inspection systems in India.

According to a statement from SDHI, the collaboration will involve the exclusive production of Varex's high-energy imaging systems at SDHI's facility in Pipavav, Gujarat. These systems are intended for the inspection of various cargo types at both land and sea ports within the country.

The partnership comes in response to the increasing demand among Indian security agencies for advanced inspection systems. SDHI, once known as Reliance Naval and Engineering Limited, boasts the nation's largest dry dock and a significant fabrication capacity, positioning it as a key player in the shipbuilding and heavy fabrication industry.
