As part of its mega petrochemical expansion plan, Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL) has started commercial production from its new polyester filament yarn (PFY) facility at Silvassa. With the commissioning of this ultra-modern polyester filament yarn facility, Reliance Industries’ total PFY capacity, including the Malaysian facilities, is in excess of 1.5 MMTPA. This expansion further strengthens RIL’s position as the world’s largest producer of polyester fibreand yarn, as per BS B2B Bureau.
The new PFY plant at Silvassa is the most automated and one of the most environment friendly plants globally. It is co-located with RIL’s existing texturising facility at Silvassa eliminating the packaging and logistics costs. This coupled with integration with purified terephthalic acid (PTA) will make the Silvassa facility among the lowest cost polyester filament yarn producing sites globally.
