Samtel profile

Samtel profile


In one such action, a small fire lit in 1974, gave birth to the Samtel Group. Over the years, we have grown from a small, single unit to become the largest Indian integrated manufacturer of a wide range of display devices like Colour and B&W TV picture tubes, tubes for avionics, medical and industrial applications, glass parts for picture tubes, components for tubes like deflection yokes and engineering services. Nine world-class factories and a family of over 4500 motivated people have kept our spirit of leadership alive. A spirit that has helped us to capture and sustain the highest market share in all our endeavors and thus achieve a turnover of approximately US $ 340 million per annum.
In a quest for excellence in all our fields of activity, we partnered with world leaders like Corning Incorporated, USA, Samsung Corning, Korea and Mitsubishi Electric, Japan. Long before globalization became a corporate buzzword, we set up world-class factories and systems, which allowed us to compete successfully. Long before India took its first tentative steps towards liberalization, we were exporting our products to distant shores. Over the years, we have built strong alliances with our global partners, customers and suppliers and having done so, become known for the quality of our products and services in the international arena.

With an eye on future challenges, we have taken many initiatives to build our knowledge infrastructure. Like, setting up our own tube development group with many competent engineers and a dedicated pilot line to develop products and processes for the future. Like, our projects and equipment group, which excels in creating state of the art, cost effective equipment and production systems. Like, our laboratory to develop plasma display panels - which are today at the cutting edge of display technology. Like our own "Samtel Centre for Display Technology" (SCDT) at the "Indian Institute of Technology", Kanpur for developing Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLEDs) and other generic technologies.

As a result of our efforts, we at Samtel, have been able to register many patents for developments in video display technology. Notwithstanding this, we are also highly focused on the preservation of a green environment for future generations, by setting up extensive environment protection systems at our factories.

A quest for excellence in all our fields of activity has been one of our primary objectives at Samtel. This unquenchable thirst has resulted in quality movements in various forms,like our Six Sigma Movement, becoming a part of our life. To provide value to our customers, we manufacture all the key components for our Cathode Ray Tubes ourselves and also deploy their "Quality Requirement Specifications" in our processes. This commitment to maintaining quality in every sphere that determines our existence, has helped us in our journey on the road to success.

At Samtel, customer focus took seed during the early years by existing in the minds of all employees and living through their actions. This resulted in the creation of a pioneering spirit, which placed us at the cutting edge of technological relevance through the launching of new products repeatedly over time, thus leading to the creation of a wide product range. By continuous expansion of our factories, we created an ability to maintain regular and timely supplies to our customers and won for ourselves the status of dependable and reliable suppliers. This focus on providing value, with the full support of our suppliers, converted customers into partners, journeying together on the road to progress.

Samtel has been built with the continuous and total commitment of all its members. Their individual sense of purpose has resulted in an enthusiastic collective urge to create a world-class organization. This was achieved by creating a culture of openness and trust, by being transparent with others, by feeling empowered and taking charge of one's actions, by seeking knowledge from wherever it was available, by taking calculated risks, by learning from mistakes and still not losing one's enthusiasm or sight of the goal.

As each day floats away in the mists of time, a new tomorrow is not far away. What we have achieved so far is only a foundation for our tomorrow. With each new dawn come fresh challenges. In the years ahead, success will be based on our ability to create and harness knowledge efficiently, for the benefit of all mankind. At Samtel, new paradigms are an accepted fact of life. In everything that we do today, we have our sights set on the future
