Long standing relationships
with the Videocon Group
- Technology Tie-up
- In December 2004, Thomson signed a technology support agreement
with Videocon to provide them with our expertise in glass technology
over a 3 year period.
- Anagni
- On January 26th, 2005, Thomson Displays transferred the Anagni
plant to Videocon, the leading Indian TV maker.
- The Closing occurred on Feb 28th.
- Videocon’s strategic plan for Anagni involves the progressive
stoppage of CRT manufacturing and the rapid development of new activities
centred around flat panel displays, notably plasma panel production
(due to start production in March 2006) and CRT and FPD TV assembly
(start of production in Q4 2005) but also air conditioning activities.

Present employee strength is approximately 1400 persons.
Facility has two lines manufacturing A29TF, A32TF. We
have re-industrialized the facility. CTV OEM started
for CRT, LCD and PDP TVs. AC (Split and Window models)

to start by 2006. Later on, Packing Box, Thermacol unit,
