Indorama has begun running its third manufacturing facility in Himachal Pradesh to manufacture spandex.

With the new plant becoming operational, Indorama has now added another 25 metric tons per day capacity and has taken the total production capacity to 65 metric tons per day, which is a giant leap from less than 15 metric tons per day in 2017.

The company has an in-house polymer R&D facility along with a textile and diaper grade application development center to study customer needs, formulate various polymers, continuously improve and offer world-class products.

The company is known for its spandex brand Inviya which holds a leadership position in providing functional solutions to high-end garments, accessories like elastics, tapes and hygiene products like diapers.

Inviya is widely accepted as a dependable raw material by yarn and fabric manufacturers and accessories manufacturers alike in India and across many countries. Inviya’s success is held up as an example to make India self-sufficient in technological development and manufacturing. Indorama also offers other differentiated/specialty spandex products like coloured spandex and ultra-fine deniers.

Indorama is probably the only company in the Indian subcontinent to produce spandex meant for hygiene applications, which is available under the brand SnugFit that caters to baby and adult diaper manufacturers.
