In FY27, the company’s revenue is projected to surge by 75 per cent as the plant’s production capacity will reach a dominant 60,000 tons per month, recording a jump of 76 per cent.

The colour coating line includes a multi-stage cleaning section, tension leveller, chemical coating, drying and paint coaters with curing ovens with RTO, an inspection station, and a cold laminator.
