National, 21 April 2026: Shyam Metalics and Energy Limited, one of India’s leading integrated metal producers, has expanded its production capabilities at its Pakuria facility with the addition of new equipment as part of its ongoing focus on improving operations and meeting growing demand. The company has successfully commissioned and commenced commercial production from two new annealing furnaces. One plant has a capacity of 25 MT p.a., while the other has a capacity of 30 MT p.a. It will help to streamline the annealing process and improve production efficiency. These furnaces are expected to support better consistency in output and overall product quality. Alongside this, Shyam Metalics has commissioned a 2300 mm vertical foil separator (LGSS). This equipment enables accurate separation of Ultra-Light Gauge (ULG) and Light Gauge (LG) foil, covering a thickness range of 6 to 15 microns. This addition will help the company to cater to the customers with more specialised requirements and with greater precision. Together, these upgrades will improve process control and strengthen manufacturing capabilities at the Pakuria unit while supporting the company’s efforts to expand its value-added product offerings.
Commenting on the development, Mr Brij Bhushan Agarwal, Chairman & Managing Director, Shyam Metalics and Energy Limited, said, “We are continuously working on strengthening our operations through targeted upgrades and better processes. The additions at Pakuria will help us improve efficiency and deliver more consistent, high-quality products to our customers. As demand evolves, we are focused on building the right capabilities to respond quickly and effectively.” These additions are part of Shyam Metalics’ broader plan to steadily enhance its manufacturing strength and stay aligned with market needs.
