Phillips Machine Tools India: The legacy of EXCELLENCE & INNOVATION
Q. Congratulations on your new company name & logo, what was the reason behind the recent revamp?
Our former name “CNC Servicing and Solutions India Pvt Ltd” was a more generic name which was indicative of the business we are in but did not convey the global identity of our company “PHILLIPS Corporation”. We are a leading global machine tool distributor and strive to be the Best Resource for Manufacturing Technology in the key markets of US, India, China and Europe where we are present.
Our new company name “PHILLIPS Machine Tools India Pvt Ltd” is reflective of both: the business we are in and our global brand identity. Our new logo is a symbol of our philosophy of continuous growth and improvement as shown by the 3 lines which increase in thickness and intensity from left to right.
Our tag line “Create Better Ideas” is reflective of our endeavour to create a group of high performing individuals united by a common cause: virtuosos engaged in creating a better idea.
