History of the Company

 

Rupali Polyester Limited was incorporated at Karachi in May 1980 as a Public Limited Company and is listed on all stock exchanges of Pakistan. It owns and operates composite facilities to manufacture polyester fiber and filament yarn. It produces quality products by using latest technology and best quality of raw materials. The Company has the privilege of being one of the pioneers in Pakistan for manufacture of staple fiber of highest quality. Since its inception, the Company has been growing steadily through expansion and diversified operations. The assets of the Company have increased to over Rs. 2,767 million from the initial capital outlay of Rs. 150 million.

 

The Company has a polymerization unit with a capacity of 105 metric tons per day, polyester filament yarn capacity of 30 metric tons per day and a polyester staple fibre capacity of 65 metric tons per day.
