08 Aug 2025 CW Team

Enlight Metals, a leading metal aggregator based in Pune, has announced its entry into the cable tray aggregation business. This strategic move supports its transition from a raw material supplier to a provider of value-added, project-ready steel solutions for industrial and infrastructure sectors across India.

With strong sourcing expertise and established OEM relationships, Enlight Metals aims to simplify cable tray procurement for EPC contractors, renewable energy firms, and automation companies. The company will cater to high-demand states including Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka, and Madhya Pradesh.

“Our core strength lies in material sourcing and supply chain efficiency. The next phase of growth is about value-added aggregation. The cable tray category is a natural fit given our client base and the volume-driven nature of the business. This step brings us closer to delivering complete, ready-to-use steel solutions,” said Vedant Goel, Director, Enlight Metals.

The product range will include perforated, ladder, wire mesh, and solid bottom trays in pre-galvanised, powder-coated, and hot-dip galvanised variants. All products will comply with IS 1079 and IS 513 standards through partnerships with certified manufacturers.

Enlight has committed an initial Rs 50 million investment towards infrastructure, vendor integration, and working capital. An ERP-backed system will support inventory and delivery for faster turnaround and improved service.

This move aligns with Enlight Metals’ vision to become a one-stop source for high-quality steel components in the industrial and infrastructure space.
