BRFL Textiles Private Limited (BTPL) has noted a boost of 50 per cent in its production at its Tarapur plant from 100,000 metres per day to 150,000 metres per day.
The rise in production has come after improved capacity utilisation within two months of raising private equity funding.
BTPL aims to reach its annual processing capacity of 144 million metres (400,000 metres per day) over due course of time.
Recently, BTPL completed Rs. 240 crore equity infusion from a consortium of marquee financial investors led by JM Financial India Fund II (an Indian growth private equity fund), Think Investments (a San Francisco-based investment firm) and others.
Speaking on expanding the capacity utilisation, Prashant Agarwal, Managing Director, BTPL, commented, “Over the years, the fabrics from our Tarapur plant have earned the trust of our customers for its superior quality and design innovation & uniqueness. With the influx of PE funds, our manufacturing capacities are now being further leveraged to expand our output and market presence. We will continue to invest in people and maintenance capex to ensure that our state-of-the-art equipment at our plant is well oiled, efficiently run and complies with all regulatory standards. In serving our customers with timely deliveries of new-age fabrics and by supplying innovative designs, our Tarapur unit is poised to grow into one of the leading fabric processing houses in the country.”
It’s worth noting here that BTPL’s Tarapur plant is India’s largest single roof fabric processing unit supported by its captive power, effluent treatment, RO water and other utilities enabling cost competitiveness.
The state-of-the-art multi-fibre fabric processing unit also has a captive yarn dyeing unit with an annual capacity of 10.6 million kg (29 tonnes per day). The plant also employs over 2,000 people at the facility.
