Hall: 07.2/ A37
The company: Alpha Plastomers is one of the first Indian companies to offer flexible and rigid packaging solutions. Its clientele includes FMCG companies, electronics, frozen foods, cosmetics and many more in domestic as well as international markets. In addition to manufacturing, the Alpha group offers in-house design and engineering services and possesses custom tooling capabilities.
Established in 1980 by Kanhaiyalal Agarwal, Alpha Polytechno, as it was known then, benefited from being in the middle of the textile hub in India. With PVC being used widely in the industry, Alpha saw an opportunity to change the industry standard by introducing Polypropylene Tubular Quench (PPTQ) film because of its clarity and strength. With the first plant in Agarwal’s basement in a small village called Navsari (about 200 km north of Mumbai), a capacity of about 10 MT per month was installed.
In 1984, the plant was relocated to Daman and the name changed to Alpha Polymer. With a larger space of 1,500 square meters, Alpha Polymer could process about 4,200 MT of polymer annually by 1996. By then, it also started offering Polyethylene (PE) bags and liners to industries including, but not limited to, textile, stationary, and household goods. Later, the plant was relocated to a four-acre Alpha Industrial Park.
By 2004, Alpha Polymer became Alpha Plastomers and was processing about 2,000 MT of polymers every month. This tremendous growth allowed Alpha Plastomers to diversify and add PET bottles to its portfolio for rigid packaging. Alpha Plastomers was the first Indian company to provide solutions for flexible and rigid packaging. Today, Alpha Pharma Roorkee (a division of Alpha Plastomers) manufactures over 9 million PET bottles annually in various shapes and sizes with volumes ranging from 10ml to 1,000ml. In 2006, Alpha introduced polyolefin (POF) shrink film and thus becoming the first Indian company to manufacture shrink film using double-bubble blown film process.
