Lords Chloro Alkali Limited, one of India’s leading manufacturers of industrial and specialty chemicals, has announced a significant expansion of its Chlorinated Paraffin Wax (CPW) manufacturing capacity from 50 TPD (Tonnes Per Day) to 100 TPD. The announcement was made via a press release dated 18th June 2025, filed with BSE and NSE under Regulation 30 of the SEBI LODR Regulations.

This expansion project represents a strategic milestone for the company and is backed by a capital expenditure (capex) of approximately ₹30 crore. The project is expected to be completed by the end of the financial year 2025-26, and is being funded through a mix of internal accruals and existing sanctioned credit lines.

Expansion Objectives

The decision to double the CPW capacity comes on the back of:

• Growing market demand for CPW, especially from downstream industries.

• Current plant utilisation levels nearing ~80%, signalling a need for scaling up.

• Aiming for greater economies of scale, better absorption of fixed costs, and improved product availability.

• Efficient utilisation of chlorine, an essential raw material in CPW production.

Management Statements

Mr. Ajay Virmani, Managing Director of Lords Chloro Alkali Limited, remarked:

“The expansion of our CPW plant marks a significant milestone in our journey to scale operations in line with industry demand and long-term strategic priorities. This move is set to unlock greater economies of scale, enhance fixed cost efficiency, and boost product availability, while also ensuring more effective utilisation of chlorine across operations.”

He further added that doubling the capacity will help strengthen customer service, ensure supply reliability, and deepen the company’s presence in high-growth chemical markets.

Mr. Madhav Dhir, Executive Director, echoed similar sentiments, highlighting the company’s commitment to executing the project with speed, precision, and a strong focus on stakeholder trust.

Strategic Significance

The expansion is more than just an increase in capacity—it aligns with the company’s broader focus on:

• Sustainable industrial growth

• Innovation and operational excellence

• Customer satisfaction and reliability

• Environmental and economic responsibility

This initiative is expected to start contributing meaningfully to financial performance from FY 2026-27 onwards.
