Jindal Advanced Materials has announced plans to significantly augment its FRP rebar production capacity to 1 lakh metric tonnes by the next financial year, aiming to establish itself as a leader in the sector. The announcement was made via a company statement released on Monday.

With current facilities in Pathredi and Hisar in Haryana yielding approximately 18,000 tonnes, the company is rapidly advancing its production capabilities. 'Jindal Advanced Materials (JAM) is gearing up to become the world's largest FRP rebar producer. We aim to reach a total annual production capacity of 1,00,000 metric tonnes by the end of FY26,' the statement read. The new plant in Pathredi, covering six acres, and the planned carbon fibre plant in Trichy, Tamil Nadu, are central to this expansion.

The company targets sectors such as railways, infrastructure, and carbon fibre, leveraging FRP rebars that are cost-effective and heat-resistant—key materials in landmark projects including the Burj Khalifa and Kanagawa Expressway. This growth aligns with JAM's broader strategic investments, highlighted by a recent Rs 1,000 crore MoU with the Tamil Nadu government. JAM operates under the USD 38 billion O P Jindal Group.
