The move forms part of the company’s growth strategy to meet rising demand, strengthen supply capabilities, and achieve its vision of crossing Rs 10 billion in annual revenues by 2028.

Following this addition, Mitsu’s total operational capacity will increase from approximately 28,424 MT per year to 29,079 MT per year. This expansion will enhance the company’s ability to cater to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) in segments such as industrial packaging, hospital furniture, infrastructure components, and emergency handling solutions.

The Rs 8,50,000 investment, funded entirely through internal accruals, will go towards acquiring advanced machinery aimed at boosting productivity and ensuring superior product quality. This aligns with Mitsu’s commitment to sustainable growth, operational efficiency, and market diversification.

The capacity increase will also help the company maintain supply-chain resilience amid growing demand from sectors including chemicals, pharmaceuticals, dyes, agrochemicals, disinfectants, and healthcare infrastructure.

Commenting on the development, Jagdish Dedhia, Chairman, Mitsu Chem Plast, said, “This capacity enhancement marks another milestone in Mitsu’s journey of continuous growth and innovation. As demand strengthens across our key verticals, this investment ensures we stay ahead by expanding production, improving delivery timelines, and exceeding customer expectations. We remain firmly on track to achieve our Rs 10 billion revenue milestone by 2028.”
