UltraTech Increases Grinding Capacity by 0.6 MTPA in West Bengal
UltraTech Cement has taken a strategic step to enhance its cement production capabilities by expanding its grinding capacity at the Sonar Bangla facility in West Bengal by 0.6 million tonnes per annum (MTPA). This expansion is designed to address the rising demand for composite cement in the eastern region, a key market for the company, while also improving UltraTech’s overall blended cement ratio.
With the completion of this capacity expansion, UltraTech’s total domestic grey cement manufacturing capacity now stands at an impressive 166.31 MTPA. Additionally, the company has broadened its international footprint by increasing its global cement production capacity by 5.4 MTPA. As a result, UltraTech’s total cement production capacity across both domestic and overseas markets has risen to 171.71 MTPA, further cementing its position as a global leader in the cement industry.
This expansion aligns with UltraTech Cement’s long-term strategy of bolstering production capabilities and operational efficiency. The move is part of the company’s broader plan to meet growing construction demand both in India and globally, supporting its continued market leadership. The enhanced production capacity is expected to enable UltraTech to better serve the increasing requirements for high-quality cement, ensuring a steady supply to its customer base while driving sustainable growth in the years to come.
