Mallcom reinforces India’s industrial safety ecosystem with a ₹100 crore investment in its Sanand facility, supporting localisation, job creation, and sustainable industrial growth.
Ahmedabad, 17 June, 2026: Mallcom India Limited, a head-to-toe PPE manufacturer in India, has announced an investment of over Rs. 100 Crores in its production plant at Sanand, Gujarat. This strategic move not only supports import substitution in the PPE segment, but also advances the ‘Make In India’ mission, strengthens domestic manufacturing capabilities, and addresses the rising demand for industrial safety equipment across local and global markets. The unit is equipped with modern production lines for large-scale manufacturing of a wide range of Industrial Safety Equipment. It functions as a strategic hub for innovation and localisation in the PPE production process. As Mallcom’s 17th manufacturing facility and its 2nd facility in Gujarat, the Sanand unit currently employs over 200 local workers. It is further expected to create more than 300 jobs by next year. With strong commissioning, Mallcom is operating the Sanand facility on a full-fledged basis. The company continues to set new benchmarks in PPE manufacturing, strengthening its position as a trusted industry leader in India.
Strengthening India’s Self-Reliance In Safety Equipment Production
As Indian industries continue to place greater focus on workplace safety, the demand for high-quality industrial safety equipment is also rising. The strong expansion of the Sanand facility reflects Mallcom’s commitment to shaping the evolving Indian industrial landscape.
The facility houses multiple product lines, including NBR and PU gloves dipping lines. From cotton-knitted gloves to PU-coated and Industrial Nitrile Gloves, and from bump caps to industrial safety helmets, the advanced manufacturing unit is equipped with state-of-the-art production lines to deliver world-class safety solutions. Through integrated operations and stringent cross-production quality control, Mallcom strengthens its position as one of the most reliable PPE manufacturers in India. Every industrial safety equipment product manufactured at the facility strictly adheres to European, American and Indian safety standards.
Strengthening the Sanand facility is a key step in enhancing India’s domestic PPE manufacturing capacity, contributing to the broader national vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat.
Advancing Import Substitution Of PU & Other Gloves
India’s usage of industrial gloves, especially PU-coated gloves, has largely remained dependent on imports. Reducing this dependence is important for strengthening domestic manufacturing, conserving foreign exchange, and developing a more resilient supply ecosystem.
To help secure India’s Forex reserve, Indian PPE manufacturers like Mallcom have moved towards import substitution of PU Coated Gloves and nitrile gloves for industrial use. The expansion of the Sanand production plant is a strategic step towards creating greater domestic capacity in India’s PPE sector.
This initiative places strong emphasis on the use of innovative machinery to enable the successful distribution of PU coated and other gloves for both domestic and international markets. With the recent addition of a new NBR dipping line with online printing and stripping, Mallcom supports the localised production of Protech PU Gloves and other products that were earlier imported. The unit utilises the strength of India’s local workforce for a smooth transition towards import substitution. Strategic investment in the Sanand facility and its expansion will play a key role in reducing import dependence in the industrial safety equipment sector.
Setting New Standards For PPE Manufacturers In India
The development of the Sanand facility represents a new benchmark for innovation in PPE production and operational excellence. The unit supports sustainable practices, including the use of biomass pellets for cleaner energy generation, a Zero Liquid Discharge system for water conservation, and compliance with SEDEX-audited standards of ethical manufacturing.
Energy-efficient machinery, waste management systems and safe working conditions are among the key features that define the Sanand facility.
The growth of this unit reflects Mallcom’s commitment to making India self-sufficient in advanced and trusted industrial safety equipment.
Commenting on the development, Mr. Giriraj Mall, Executive Director, Mallcom India Ltd., said, “The Sanand facility reinforces our commitment to building globally competitive manufacturing capabilities in India. Our continued investments reflect our long-term vision to strengthen indigenous production, advance import substitution, and develop safety solutions that can serve both domestic and international markets.”
Mr. Rohit Mall, Associate Vice President, Mallcom India Ltd., added, “We believe the next phase of growth in the PPE industry will be driven by localisation, product innovation and advanced manufacturing. Our investments in the Sanand facility are focused on building future-ready manufacturing capabilities that can respond to evolving customer requirements while reducing dependence on imports.”
