"The new line that is yet to be installed is the most advanced line available in the market today in terms of its width and output. This high speed line equipped with automated changeovers will lead to an increase in power savings thus maximising overall operational efficiencies," an official statement said.
Pankaj Poddar, CEO, Cosmo Films Ltd said, “We are anticipating a strong demand for BOPP films in the coming years especially from the FMCG sector which prompts us to expand our BOPP production capacity.”
He further added, “The output for the production unit intends to be used for both domestic and export markets.” Our expansion plans are also aligned with government’s Make in India project which aims at boosting home grown manufacturing companies.
