Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], April 28: Mitsu Chem Plast Limited (BSE: 540078), a leading certified manufacturer of polymer-based moulded products, is proud to announce its strategic foray into the Intermediate Bulk Container (IBC) vertical. The company is setting up a state-of-the-art, fully automatic facility for IBC expected in Q2 FY27 – marking a transformative milestone in its product expansion journey.
Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs) are large industrial containers used to store, transport, and handle bulk liquids, semi-solids, pastes, and solids. Widely deployed across chemical, pharmaceutical, food & beverage, agrochemical, and specialty industries. Their stackable, reusable, and space-efficient design makes them the preferred packaging solution for bulk liquid handling globally.
Key Features of Mitsu Chem Plast IBCs
- Built for Quality & Reliability: Engineered to meet stringent international standards with robust HDPE inner bottles and precision-welded steel cage frames.
- Consistent Industrial Performance: Manufactured on a fully automatic line ensuring uniform wall thickness, dimensional accuracy, and superior product consistency in every unit.
- Versatile Across Applications: Suitable for a wide range of industries, including chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food-grade liquids, agrochemicals, lubricants, and specialty materials.
Strategic Significance of the IBC Plant
The new IBC facility represents a significant capital investment and a strategic leap forward for Mitsu Chem Plast. The plant will feature a fully automated IBC, integrating blow moulding and assembly under one roof – enabling high-volume production with exceptional precision and efficiency.
This expansion is aligned with India’s growing demand for industrial bulk packaging solutions and the global shift towards standardized, reusable bulk liquid containers. With existing manufacturing operations in Boisar (Tarapur) and Khalapur, Mitsu Chem Plast is well-positioned to scale its IBC production.
Tapping into a High-Growth Segment
The global IBC market is witnessing strong growth, driven by increasing demand for efficient and safe bulk liquid transportation, particularly in the chemical and pharmaceutical sectors. India’s burgeoning industrial economy is fuelling domestic demand for quality IBCs.
Commenting on this landmark expansion, Mr. Sanjay Dedhia, Managing Director of Mitsu Chem Plast Limited, said, “The IBC vertical represents a natural and exciting evolution of our product portfolio. At Mitsu Chem Plast, we have always believed in staying ahead of market needs. With our fully automatic IBC facility expected to be commissioned in Q2 FY27, we are not just entering a new product category; we are entering it with precision, scale, and a commitment to quality that our customers have always trusted us for.
