KD Infrastructures is in the process of setting up a specialised steel fabrication facility with an annual capacity of 25,000 tonne (t), which will provide comprehensive turnkey fabrication and infrastructure solutions. The facility is described as capable of serving construction, energy, utilities, transportation and urban development projects, enabling Manbro to deliver end to end engineered products. The scale of the plant is intended to strengthen manufacturing throughput and improve lead times for large projects.

The expanded product portfolio encompasses galvanized structural products such as gratings, crash barriers and cable trays, as well as power infrastructure components including transmission towers, monopoles and associated fittings. It will also include solar structures comprising rooftop frames, ground mounted systems and trackers, plus lighting and urban poles such as high masts and smart poles, together with fabricated industrial items and electro optical components. The breadth of offerings is positioned to meet diverse project specifications and supply chain requirements.

The acquisition is described as a strategic step to diversify into higher margin infrastructure segments and to scale operations across multiple markets. Management anticipates that integration of the fabrication facility will enhance product mix flexibility, support business resilience and create operational efficiencies without altering the companys existing commercial commitments. The transaction positions Manbro as a multi sector infrastructure solutions provider with potential for scalable growth.
