Rama Phosphates Limited has set up a new manufacturing unit at its existing factory premises at Udaipur for manufacture of Linear Alkyl Benzene Sulphonic Acid (LABSA) having installed capacity of 18,000 TPA.

The company has also set up a new sulphuric acid manufacturing facility at Indore unit having capacity of 170 TPD.

As a part of forward integration, LABSA would be produced from Sulphuric Acid which is the basic raw material of soaps, detergents, surfactants and disinfection products etc. and this LABSA product is in great demand in the present situation. Simultaneously, this would act as a catalyst as part of backward integration. As a byproduct of LABSA, it would be consumed in the manufacture of core products like Single Super Phosphate (SSP). This will also help the company in saving the production cost of basic core SSP products.

The trial production of Sulphuric Acid from Indore facility has been successful and the company is soon planning to go for commercial production. The two products - LABSA and Sulphuric Acid will substantially contribute to increased turnover of the company.
