Late 1970s
Towards the end of the 70s, as the nation emerged from a deep slumber induced by political upheavals, a small plastic mouldings manufacturing outfit in Mumbai — the country’s commercial capital — identified a potential gap in the industrial machinery sector.
At that time, the industry was dominated by Western brands and seemed cursed to remain inefficient and uneconomical in the global market
The Beginning
Two brothers, armed with process knowledge and limited finance, set out to design and develop control switches — a critical component needed in almost all machines for automation.
Through the early 80s, they took measured steps, supported by the textile boom, and later strengthened by the post-liberalisation growth of the 90s.
Growth and Recognition
Over the years, BOHMEN slowly and steadily became a recognized brand in reputed manufacturing circles.
With the rising demand from railways and elevators in growing urban areas, BOHMEN introduced new products and adopted modern manufacturing practices to meet the needs of maturing industries.
Today
In the 21st century, BOHMEN is an established name, trusted for performance and chosen by design teams across multiple sectors.
Our products are manufactured in an ISO 9001:2015 certified facility by a dedicated team of 35 professionals, with an installed capacity of approximately 5 lakh switches per annum.
We are committed to delivering a fully satisfactory buying experience by ensuring zero downtime during production and post-sales. Through strong partnerships with vendors and customers, we continuously enhance value for the global machinery market.
Our vision is to establish Bohmen as the trusted name in process control switching devices by deeply understanding customer needs and delivering with efficiency, supported by a robust, quality-driven manufacturing system built for long-term excellence.
