Inox Air Products, one of the largest manufacturers of industrial and medical gases in India, said that its proposed plant at Hosur will produce liquid oxygen, liquid nitrogen and liquid argon and will be commissioned and operational in December 2022. “The commissioning of this plant would augment our liquid medical oxygen production capacity by 50%,” Siddharth Jain – director, INOX Air Products said. With an investment of ₹150 crore, the Hosur plant will be identical to the Sriperumbudur plant which is currently producing 200 TPD of liquid gases. The Sriperumbudur facility is the largest medical oxygen manufacturing unit in the State with supplies going to 122 hospitals across the region. From a pre-Covid daily medical oxygen supply average of 70 tonnes per day in February 2020, it scaled up to a daily average of 180 tonnes per day in April 2021 and in May, its capacity reached 149 tonnes per day. “The Tamil Nadu market holds vital significance to us. So far, we have invested more than ₹215 crore in the State,” Mr.Jain said.
