Venus Pipes & Tubes Ltd, a leading manufacturer of stainless pipes and tubes, has approved a capacity expansion of Rs. Fifty crores for a massive diameter Tube Mill to manufacture stainless steel welded pipes. This new line will increase the existing welded pipes range to a maximum 20” inch (508mm) diameter and thickness up to SCH80s with a capacity of 700 mt per month.
It will be funded through a mix of Debt (Term loan) & internal accruals, and commercial production is expected to start by Q1 FY24.
The proposed expansion will include a tube mill and the entire finishing infrastructure, i.e., an Annealing furnace, Pickling and Passivation setup, high-end testing, etc., to support the higher dia. welded pipe process. This capacity expansion will be in addition to an ongoing evolution of 600 MT per month of welded pipes upto 48 inches.
Post completion of both these capacity expansion projects, the total Welded capacity will increase by almost three times from the current 700 MT per month to 2,000 MT per month by FY24.
Apart from this, the additional 500 MT per month (on the existing capacity of 300 MT per month) for seamless pipes/tubes is on track. So the total Welded (2000 mt per month) & Seamless (800 mt per month) capacity post planned CAPEX will be 2800 mt per month.
Commenting on the expansion, Arun Kothari, Managing Director, Venus Pipes & Tubes Ltd, said, “Post the commissioning of this project, we will be the amongst the very few manufacturers in the India & World to have tube mill capacity of manufacturing this size which is an major milestone in our growth journey.
With the revival of the capex cycle in India leading to robust demand for our products across End User Industries, this capacity expansion will give us an edge and help to capture more market in this segment.
