Align Technology (Nasdaq: ALGN), a leading global medical device company that designs, manufactures, and sells the Invisalign® System of clear aligners, iTero™ intraoral scanners and services, and exocad™ CAD/CAM software for digital orthodontics and restorative dentistry, today announced plans to open a new manufacturing facility in Hyderabad in 2027, create more than 300 direct jobs, and spend approximately $200 million in both capital and operational expenses over the next several years.

“India represents an important growth market for Align, and we are excited about the opportunity to expand our global manufacturing network with a new facility in Hyderabad,” said Jitse Marrée, Align executive vice president, global operations. “This investment underscores our commitment to scaling our advanced manufacturing capabilities, supporting our doctor customers, and bringing the benefits of the Invisalign® System to more patients worldwide. Hyderabad’s strong talent base, infrastructure, and innovation ecosystem make it an ideal location for our next phase of growth.”

Align’s Hyderabad manufacturing facility will complement Align’s existing footprint in Hyderabad, which includes its Global Capability Center and the Align Innovation Center, further reinforcing the city’s strategic importance within Align’s global operations network. It would mark the company’s first manufacturing presence in India and its fourth globally. The proposed facility is expected to commence operations in 2027 and be margin-accretive in the first year.

“We are proud to expand Align’s global manufacturing footprint with our first manufacturing facility in India and a new state-of-the-art site in Hyderabad,” said JunHo Han, Align executive vice president and managing director, Asia Pacific. “This investment reflects our long-term commitment to the Asia-Pacific region and builds on our continued expansion across key markets, where we have been investing in local teams, capabilities, and digital treatment planning infrastructure to support growing adoption of the Invisalign® System. The Hyderabad facility represents an important milestone as we scale our operations in high-growth markets and further strengthen our ability to support Invisalign-trained doctors and their patients. With this investment, we expect to enhance service levels across the region through more localized, customized support.”

Invisalign clear aligners are a removable and transparent teeth-straightening solution produced using digital and 3D technologies. This type of solution differs from other orthodontic devices in that it is more comfortable and can be easily removed for eating or drinking. Used to treat minor to complex types of malocclusions, Invisalign clear aligners are replaced every one or two weeks, depending on a doctor’s recommendation, gradually moving teeth toward the projected final position.
