Man Industries Expands Pipe Manufacturing in Saudi Arabia to Cater to Global Demand
Key Ideas
  • Man Industries plans to complete a ₹650 crore pipe manufacturing expansion facility in Damman, Saudi Arabia in the current fiscal year to capitalize on growing demand and local import duties.
  • The company targets a 30-35% rise in revenue from existing facilities in India in 2025-26, with expectations of growth touching 40% in 2026-27 due to overseas and Indian expansion projects.
  • In addition to traditional pipes, Man Industries is entering the manufacturing of special-grade pipes for hydrogen transportation, with expectations of orders from European countries developing new pipeline networks.
  • The decision to have a greenfield facility in Saudi Arabia is justified by the country's import duties and potential market demand, making it cost-competitive and strategically beneficial for the company.
Man Industries (India) Ltd is set to complete its ₹650 crore pipe manufacturing expansion facility in Damman, Saudi Arabia, to cater to increasing demand and take advantage of local import duties. The company's managing director, Nikhil Mansukhani, highlighted that the expansion projects in Saudi Arabia and Jammu and Kashmir could add $500 million to its revenue at full capacity. With profits nearing ₹100 crore and revenues exceeding ₹2,200 crore in the first nine months of 2024-25, Man Industries aims for a 30-35% revenue increase from its Indian facilities in the upcoming fiscal year. Additionally, the company is venturing into manufacturing special-grade pipes for hydrogen transportation, expecting orders from Europe as the region develops new pipeline networks. The decision to establish a greenfield facility in Saudi Arabia is based on cost competitiveness due to import duties and potential market demand, with Saudi players already booked for the next few years. Man Industries' future growth projections are optimistic, with substantial capex planned for 2025-26 and revenue growth expected from both overseas and Indian expansion projects.
