SONA BLW GROUP INDIA UNVEILS NEW LOGO
Signals Significant Brand Evolution & Sustainable Future Growth

New Delhi: SONA BLW Group India has unveiled its new logo to recalibrate the larger perception of its consistent technology-based growth and future objectives. This announcement coincides with SONA BLW’s participation in the forthcoming Auto Component Expo 2018, starting on the 8th of February at Pragati Maidan in New Delhi.

Mr. Sunjay Kapur, CEO of the US$ 500 million SONA Group & Managing Director, SONA BLW Precision Forging said, “SONA stands for an inspired passion for quality manufacturing and breakthrough thinking, that enables us to transform natural resources into innovative automation. Molten metal is forged and shaped into high precision components. Our products, are then used by some of the best automobile manufacturers around the world. Our heritage, integrity and complete compliance in innovation in the pursuit of excellence, gives birth to the future culture of the company. It embodies the spirit of ONE SONA. To this date, Late Dr. Surinder Kapur’s visionary thinking stands as our legacy. There are some lessons that are not obtained in B-school theory but understood in practical existence. Dr. Kapur’s values and principles are imbibed as the core strength in our solid foundation. Across geographies, we are united in our efforts and values to honour our commitment to improve the lives of customers and employees. Through the company’s new logo, our visual identity brings together heritage, dynamics, structure, hard work, precision, and innovation. This identity is an amalgamation of the fluid as well as the structured.”

Presenting, the newly minted SONA logo:
The letters ‘S’ and ‘O’ form the globe, the ‘N’ and ‘A’ form the core of the planet. The abstract components that form the core of their business are represented by 5 teeth, one for each continent. With geometric precision, the layers within, bring texture and vibrancy of the work culture. The infinite, connected symbol represents positivity of intent, innovation and the continuous endeavour to grow.SONA stands for that raw purity of core manufacturing, turning nature into a manmade wonder. The company consciously chose to bring forth their prudence in the identity by using a singular binary black and white combination. Overall, the SONA logo creates an aspirational form symbolising the richness of the company’s past, the reality of their present, and inspiration for the future.

SONA BLW is an ISO TS 16941 certified and ISO 14000:1996 certified company and Energy Management System ISO 50001 Certified.

Mr. Sunjay Kapur, further elaborated on the reasoning behind the company’s brand-new logo. “Today marks 10 years of being a global company for us. 10 years ago, we bought the ThyssenKrupp gear division. Our Founder, Late Dr. Surinder Kapur’s vision was to create a company that India is proud of. Our foray into building the electric axle, the differential for the current as well as electric vehicle manufacturers, enabled us to capture 11% of the global market for differential bevel gears. We can proudly say that we have achieved our vision of creating a company that makes India proud. As we transition to create a new vision, to design and manufacture products that will aid the future of mobility, we at SONA BLW look at the future with renewed vigour and aspirations. We developed the new logo and identity to signify that.”

SONA BLW will put on display their large product line at the upcoming Expo. To meet the expectations that auto enthusiasts have of their technology and product portfolio, SONA BLW will also exclusively showcase its E-axle and the concept prototype for co-axial e-axle with an integrated motor.
