Piramal Glass is to invest US$42 million to expand its Jambusar, India container glass manufacturing plant.

The expansion plan includes one new furnace with seven manufacturing lines across its 300,000ft2 plant. It will cater to the high-end speciality spirit, food & beverage and pharmaceutical markets for exports to countries in Asia, Europe and the US.

It employs 2130 people and with this expansion it will create additional direct employment to 700 people.

Globally, it manufactures 1435 tonnes per day of glass from 12 furnaces and 63 production lines. 40% of its sales are in high-end cosmetics & perfumery market, 37% in speciality spirits market and 23% in pharmaceutical market.
