HRD Antwerp opens office in Surat

HRD Antwerp opened its second office in India, in Surat. It already operates a Diamond Lab in Mumbai.

The lab opened the office citing local market needs. The Surat office will offer HRD Antwerp’s cutting edge technology and serve as a drop off point for diamonds and jewellery to be graded in its Mumbai diamond lab. In the Mumbai lab services include full HRD Antwerp Diamond Certificates, Diamond Identification Reports, preliminary examinations, follow-up examinations (updates and duplicates), sealing or re-sealing, transit and Jewellery Reports.

The new launch underscores the lab’s expansion efforts in the Indian market and its commitment to strengthening ties with the largest Indian diamond production hub Surat.

Serge Couvreur, CEO of HRD Antwerp states “Our new office in Surat features a complete showroom and diamond equipment shop and will focus on actively promoting our grading services, educational programs and the sales of high tech diamond equipment such as the Eos Fancy, Morgana and Avalon+. These innovative instruments have specifically been developed by HRD Antwerp and WTOCD and can be considered among the best diamond equipment available today“.
