The company is also investing in new site spread over an area of 23 acres in Ahmedabad, which should be functional by last quarter of 2025. “The new site will have an installed capacity of 250 recycling lines annually.
Initially, the plant will produce about 100 lines for the domestic and international market. The production will be hiked gradually driven by the market demand.
Partners to market to machinery and provide after sales service

Legacy of tyre recycling lines extends to municipal waste lines
Meanwhile, Fornnax unveiled a high-capacity municipal waste shredder SR Max 2500, having capacity to recycle 40-50 tons of waste per hour.
“We have a successful track record of developing proven machinery in recycling domain for different types of tyres, ferrous and non-ferrous metals, considered as most difficult applications,” says Kundaria. “The design of the SR-Series machine, a legacy that has prevailed for over a decade, continues to be repeated in the design of SR-MAX series machines.”
India is among the world’s top generator of municipal solid waste to surging population and rapid urbanisation. “India generates around 62 million tons of solid municipal waste annually. It is extremely critical to prioritise recycling and conversion of solid MSW into RDF fuel. The new line is targeted at Indian MNCs like Adani, Ultratech, Dalmia and Shree Cements etc,” stated Kundaria.
