Century Enka extend CPU-Polyester plant closure duration for some more time

Century Enka Ltd had stopped operations at Continuous Polymerisation unit-Polyester (CPU-Polyester) at Bharuch site on November 12, 2013 for preventive maintenance after a gap of four years to extend the stoppage of work for about 3-4 months.

Consequently, it also stopped continuous polyester spinning lines. During the course of preventive maintenance, the company has also taken up modification of polyester spinning lines to improve flexibility in manufacturing process.

Century Enka Ltd informed BSE that the company has decided to carry out some more modification work on polyester spinning lines. As a result, shut down of CPU and continuous polyester spinning lines will remain for some more time. The stoppage of CPU and continuous polyester spinning lines does not have any adverse impact on overall profitability of the company due to severely squeezed margins in polyester yarns.
