HSIL

Set up in 1960 as Hindustan Twyfords Ltd, with a technical collaboration with Twyfords UK, to introduce vitreous china sanitaryware in India. The company was subsequently renamed Hindustan Sanitaryware and Industries Limited in 1969 and HSIL Limited in 2009. HSIL commenced production in 1962 with the setting up of a factory in Bahadurgarh, Haryana (erstwhile Punjab). Thereafter, it expanded to container glass manufacturing with the acquisition of Associated Glass Industries Limited (AGI) in 1981 and entered into Product Packaging business. PET bottles business was added through the acquisition of Garden Polymers Private Limited (GPPL) in 2011. Packaging Products Division further expanded its business and launched counterfeit-resistant caps and closures under the brand ‘AGI Clozures’. The company significantly expanded its production capacity in the sanitaryware industry by acquiring Krishna ceramics in 1989 and Raasi ceramics in 1999. In 2014, HSIL commenced production at its Greenfield faucet plant in Bhiwadi, Rajasthan. The company’s pipe manufacturing unit went operational in 2018 at Isnapur, Telangana. The production capacity in both these businesses would be expanded through increased investment in the coming years.
