"The new line for production of BOPP films at Karjan (Gujarat) has been successfully commissioned ahead of schedule with capital cost lower than planned. The new line is the most advanced and the largest line available in the world today," said Cosmo Films in a BSE filing.
The new line has a capacity of 60,000 tonne per annum (TPA) and will increase the company's BOPP manufacturing capacity by over 40 percent to 200,000 TPA from 140,000 TPA. "It is expected to contribute to substantial growth in sales and profit in financial year 2017-18," the company added.
Karjan plant site already houses BOPP lines, extrusion coating & chemical coating lines and a metalliser. The new high speed line equipped with automated changeovers will lead to an increase in power savings thus maximising overall operational efficiencies.
