CEAT Expands Chennai Plant Production

The expansion aims to meet the growing demand for radial tyres used in both passenger and commercial vehicles. This strategic move reflects the company’s commitment to strengthening its position in the competitive automotive tyre industry by upgrading its manufacturing capabilities.

The expanded facility will significantly boost the production of radial tyres, which are crucial for modern automotive and commercial vehicle segments. With increasing demand for high-performance tyres, CEAT is positioning itself to cater to both domestic and international markets. The enhanced capacity will allow the Chennai plant to handle larger volumes and produce a wider variety of tyres, helping the company meet rising customer needs across various vehicle categories.

As part of the expansion, CEAT is investing in advanced technology and automation to ensure the plant operates with maximum efficiency while adhering to high standards of quality control.

The Chennai plant’s focus on radial tyres for both passenger cars and commercial vehicles makes it a vital hub in CEAT's production network.

CEAT's decision to expand the Chennai plant comes at a time when the Indian automotive industry is witnessing a surge in demand for vehicles, which in turn drives the need for reliable and durable tyres. The plant's enhanced output capacity will support CEAT’s broader strategy to strengthen its market presence and meet the evolving needs of automobile manufacturers and consumers.

This development marks a significant milestone in CEAT’s growth trajectory, reinforcing its position as a leading player in the tyre manufacturing sector.
