KICH Champions Inclusive Infrastructure with Kanpur Metro Contribution

Kanpur, May 31, 2025 — As the city of Kanpur celebrates the launch of its highly anticipated Metro Phase 2, the spotlight not only shines on improved mobility but also on the quiet yet powerful contributions of innovation-driven companies like KICH Architectural Hardware & Railing.

With seven kilometers of underground connectivity and five new metro stations—Chunniganj, Naveen Market, Bada Chauraha, Nayaganj, and Kanpur Central—now operational, the Kanpur Metro sets a new benchmark in urban infrastructure. At the heart of this progress is KICH, which played a key role by providing advanced tactile guidance systems designed to empower visually impaired passengers.

KICH’s Indicator Tactile solutions, installed across stations are engineered to global accessibility standards, ensuring that the metro system is not just efficient, but inclusive.
