INOXAP commissions UHP liquid oxygen plant in Hosur, India

The facility produces 6N grade (99.9999% purity) Ultra-High Purity Liquid Oxygen, with a capacity of 17 TPD (500 Nm³/hr), catering to the stringent requirements of semiconductor and solar manufacturing industries. Strategically located in Hosur, one of the industrial hubs in South India, the plant is well-positioned to serve emerging high-technology clusters with reliability and speed.

Speaking on the occasion, Siddharth Jain, Managing Director, INOXAP, said, “At INOXAP, we believe that true progress for India lies in building capabilities within the country that power its future industries. The commissioning of this Ultra-High Purity Liquid Oxygen facility is a step towards that vision. It aims to significantly reduce dependence on imports and strengthen the foundation of India’s semiconductor and solar manufacturing ecosystem. As the nation advances towards technological self-reliance, we remain committed to investing ahead of the demand curve, ensuring that critical enablers are available within India, for India.”

What makes this development particularly noteworthy is that Ultra-High Purity Liquid Oxygen was previously imported to meet domestic demand. With this commissioning, INOX Air Products has successfully indigenised the production of this highly critical and complex product, enabling direct, dependable supply to Indian manufacturers. This facility stands out for its ability to produce 6N grade industrial liquid oxygen, a purity level essential for precision-driven applications in electronics and photovoltaic manufacturing. Additionally, it would enable these manufacturers to significantly reduce import lead times, minimise global supply disruptions and enhance production continuity.
