Cosmo Films to set up a new line for speciality polyester films
Cosmo Films will re-commence the installation of a speciality polyester films line (BOPET) by the second quarter of 2022-23. The new line will be commissioned at the Waluj plant site in Aurangabad, Maharashtra, India with a capacity of 30,000 MT per annum. This plant already houses BOPP lines, extrusion coating lines, chemical coating lines, metallizers and a CPP line. The new production line will complement the existing BOPP capacity of 200,000 MT per annum and allow Cosmo Films to offer a more comprehensive speciality product basket for flexible packaging, labeling, lamination and industrial applications. The project cost is estimated to be 300 crore INR (41 million USD), which will be financed through a mix of internal accruals and loans.
