JPFL Films Private Limited, a material subsidiary of Jindal Poly Films Limited, has announced a significant capacity expansion initiative with the planned installation of new BOPP, PET, and CPP film lines at its state-of-the-art facility in Nashik, Maharashtra. The investment, exceeding ₹700 crore, reflects the company’s strategic commitment to reinforcing its market leadership and addressing growing demand in the flexible packaging sector.
The new production lines are expected to be commissioned over the next 2–3 years and will feature some of the most advanced equipment available globally. These lines will deliver superior width, enhanced output, increased process efficiency, and consistent product quality—positioning JPFL Films at the forefront of innovation and operational excellence in the packaging industry.
Key Expansion Details:
- New BOPP Line (Line 10): Capacity of up to 42,000 tonnes per annum
- New PET Line (Line I): Capacity of up to 55,000 tonnes per annum
- New CPP Line (Line 3): Capacity of up to 18,000 tonnes per annum
The expansion will be financed through a combination of internal accruals and borrowings. It comes on the back of strong performance by the company, which recorded a 43% year-on-year growth in net revenue from operations during the first nine months of FY 2024–25. This move also builds upon the company’s previously announced BOPP Line 9 project in August 2024.
Flexible packaging is a rapidly growing industry driven by rising demand from the food and beverage, personal care, and pharmaceutical sectors. JPFL Films aims to stay ahead of this curve by bolstering production capacity and offering a diversified range of high-performance films focused on quality, sustainability, and technological innovation.
Mr. Vinod Kumar Gupta, Chief Executive Officer of JPFL Films, stated:
“With this expansion, we are enhancing our ability to meet and exceed customer expectations with a diverse range of high-performance films. A majority of the products made on these lines will be geared towards sustainability and the creation of a greener future. This move aligns with our goals of improving operational efficiency and further strengthens our capacity to serve customers with confidence and commitment.”
The proposed investment also addresses demand-supply imbalances and ongoing pricing pressures in the packaging industry, enabling JPFL Films to maintain its leadership despite sectoral headwinds.
