Developed with an investment of Rs 1.20 billion and spread across 40 acres, the new facility adds 50,000 MT of annual production capacity, taking Fabex’s total installed capacity to 100,000 MT across its two units. The company’s first high-capacity plant in Vijayawada continues to serve both domestic and international markets with pre-engineered building and structural steel solutions.

The Chityal unit will primarily manufacture pre-engineered buildings for industrial applications such as factories, warehouses, and logistics infrastructure. Fabex has also announced plans to invest an additional Rs 1 billion over the next 2–3 years to advance automation, enhance throughput, and diversify its product portfolio.

“We are aligning our capital investments with market momentum across our product lines. The Rs 1-billion follow-on investment over the next 24–36 months will focus on automation, throughput enhancement, and product diversification,” said Venu Chava, Co-Founder and Managing Director, Fabex Steel Structures.

“With a combined annual capacity of 100,000 MT, we now have the scale to execute multi-site PEB rollouts and turnkey design-to-installation projects across India and overseas. We also plan to diversify into new structural segments,” added IV Ramana Raju, Co-Founder and CEO, Fabex Steel Structures.

Currently, Fabex employs 400 people and plans to double its workforce to 800 as operations ramp up. With a turnover of Rs 4.63 billion, the company is targeting Rs 10 billion in revenue within three years, supported by a 70 per cent client retention rate and growing international presence.

Fabex exports to three continents, with key markets in North America, Africa, and the Middle East, and is actively exploring new geographies to expand its global footprint.

The new Chityal facility was inaugurated on Sunday in the presence of Sri Vemula Veeresham (MLA, Nakrekal), Sri Vasantha Krishna Prasad (MLA, Mylavaram), and Sri Sriram Rajagopal (MLA, Jaggayyapeta), along with industry stakeholders and dignitaries — underscoring Fabex’s growing role in India’s structural steel manufacturing landscape.
