FORNNAX Technology, a leading name in India’s recycling equipment manufacturing sector, reached a milestone, breaking ground on its 23-acre manufacturing site in Gujarat, India recently.
The new facility is poised to be among the largest in the world, with an aim to produce about 250 machinery units annually by 2030.
It’s a strategic step in the company’s bid to bolster its market share, aspiring to become a global leader in the industry.
Jignesh Kundaria, Chief Executive Officer and Director, who along with Kaushik Kundaria, Director of FORNNAX, is the architect of the ambitious project, says the ceremony marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the company.
“This facility will not only bolster our global presence but also significantly contribute to India’s goal of achieving Net Zero emissions by 2070 while driving economic growth,” Jignesh says.
“We are confident that our advanced manufacturing of high-capacity and heavy-duty machinery, and commitment to quality, will meet the needs of our global clients seeking efficient recycling solutions.”
FORNNAX produces primary shredders, secondary shredders and granulators for tyres, municipal solid waste, cables, e- waste, aluminium and many other industrial applications.
Jignesh says the new manufacturing site enables the company to extend its reach into critical markets such as Australia, Europe, and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC.)
FORNNAX already has a presence in Australia, operating Tyre Collection Australia Pty Ltd since 2018. In 2024, the company announced an expansion of its operations with a $3.5 million investment in a tyre recycling plant in Melbourne, Victoria.
When complete, the plant will have capacity to process 10 tonnes per hour, and an annual capacity of 55,000 tonnes, producing 20-25-millimetre steel-free rubber chips.
Jignesh says FORNNAX is actively working to build stronger sales and service partnerships in Australia, Europe, and the GCC to ensure its innovative recycling solutions are readily accessible and supported.
“By collaborating with our dedicated partners worldwide, we aim to set new standards,” he says.
“We are committed to shaping the landscape for sustainable recycling solutions in the future. Because we’re not just selling equipment, we’re building business. That’s what we believe, that’s who we are.
“Our equipment is an evolution of advanced products designed for the challenges of the recycling world.”
Jignesh says the company’s global sales partner network makes it successful worldwide. And as FORNNAX embarks on a new journey, it remains dedicated to leading innovation and sustainability in the recycling technology industry.
A key element to the company’s success is its corporate culture, based on the company history of providing value to customers’ success worldwide. Jignesh says this motivates employees to work together, develop innovative products, and produce quality equipment.
With construction of the new facility, the production department is expected to scale up significantly to ensure the seamless manufacture of high-capacity and heavy-duty machinery to meet global demands for solutions for waste tyre, municipal solid waste (MSW), cables, e-waste, aluminium, ferrous metals, and more.
The research and development team collaborates with global research and industrial organisations. It will continue to spearhead cutting-edge technologies and solutions, focusing on both new product development and the enhancement of existing offerings to meet evolving market needs. Jignesh says the design department is committed to creating efficient and user-friendly machinery that addresses diverse customer needs while the quality and control department will uphold FORNNAX’s commitment to excellence by ensuring that every product meets the highest standards.
Additionally, the after-sales service department will expand its reach to provide comprehensive support and maintenance services, ensuring the longevity and optimal performance of the equipment.
“Our mission is to create a green future by utilising ground-breaking innovation, crafting customised recycling system solutions that provide unparalleled value to our customers, while also spreading awareness about their economic and environmental benefits,” Jignesh says.
“With this, FORNNAX is set to push the boundaries of innovation, setting new standards in the recycling industry and paving the way for an eco-friendly future.
“This initiative will drive economic growth with increased employment opportunities, ultimately creating a greener future for the generations to come.”
