Mallcom strengthens India’s industrial safety ecosystem with a ₹100 crore investment in its Sanand facility, promoting localisation, employment generation, 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 step not only supports import substitution in the PPE segment, but also drives the ‘Make In India’ mission, strengthens domestic manufacturing capabilities, and caters to the growing demand for industrial safety equipment across local and global markets. The unit is equipped with modern production lines for large-scale manufacturing of a broad spectrum of Industrial Safety Equipment. It serves as a strategic hub for innovation and localisation in the PPE production process. As Mallcom’s 17th manufacturing facility and the 2nd one in Gujarat, the Sanand facility currently employs over 200 local workers. It is further expected to create more than 300 jobs by next year. With robust commissioning, Mallcom operates the Sanand facility on a full-fledged basis. It 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 place stronger emphasis on workplace safety, the demand for premium industrial safety equipment is also increasing. The robust expansion of the Sanand facility highlights Mallcom’s commitment towards 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 positions itself as one of the most trusted PPE manufacturers in India. Every industrial safety equipment produced at the facility strictly complies with European, American and Indian safety standards.
Strengthening the Sanand facility is an important 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 industrial glove usage, especially PU-coated gloves, has largely relied on imports. Reducing this dependence is essential to strengthening domestic manufacturing, conserving foreign exchange, and building a more resilient supply ecosystem.
To support 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 move towards building greater domestic capacity in India’s PPE sector.
This step places strong emphasis on the use of innovative machinery to enable the successful distribution of PU coated and other gloves for both local and global consumption. With the recent addition of a new NBR dipping line with online printing and stripping, Mallcom enables the localised production of Protech PU Gloves and other products that were earlier imported. The unit leverages the strength of India’s local workforce for a smooth transition to import substitution. Strategic investment in the Sanand facility and its expansion will play a pivotal 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 signals 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 adherence to SEDEX-audited standards of ethical manufacturing.
Energy-efficient machinery, waste management systems, and safe working conditions are key attributes 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.”
