MSAFE Reports Strong Earnings And Expands Capacity
Aluminium and ladder capacity will rise from one point five one two million units per annum to two point five one two mn units per annum by May 2027. MS scaffolding capacity has been increased to 6,285 tonnes per annum from 3,285 tonnes per annum committed at the time of the IPO by temporarily renting facilities to meet demand. The company said it will assess whether to retain temporary capacity after the owned facility is commissioned based on demand and utilisation.
The group has forayed into the formwork division and appointed a business head while launching a flagship product, and plans to commence 500 tonnes per annum capacity by December 2026. Management described this as a milestone in its evolution from a safety equipment provider to an integrated structural equipment solutions company and said experienced professional management has been onboarded. The statement added that scaffolding capacity committed at IPO was achieved ahead of schedule through temporary arrangements.
The company said it expects growth to pick up meaningfully from FY27 and is targeting at least 50 per cent revenue growth as new manufacturing capacity comes online. It indicated an increased focus on complex and value added products alongside its asset backed rental model, which it said yields superior margins and predictable cash flows. The firm highlighted structural tailwinds from stronger safety regulations and the shift from unorganised to organised scaffolding systems as supporting sustained scaling.
