News Topical, Digital Desk : Oriental Trimex Limited, the country's well-known imported natural marble company, has put forward a new strategy for growth. Through these changes, the company is writing a new story of profit and expansion worldwide. The company is now increasing its focus on new technology to increase and improve margins. This has given it a first-mover advantage on the basis of technology and it has received a formal lease for the Jer Black Granite mine from the Odisha government. This will help the company to expand its portfolio. Along with this, the company is also working on a strategy to take advantage of the sale of non-core assets and the ongoing growth in luxury housing.
New technology for cutting marble blocks
Marble blocks were cut with traditional blades till now, whose thickness was about 3.5 mm. But the company has now adopted Smart Cut Ultrathin Wire Machine, whose wire thickness is only 0.55 mm.
This technology has many advantages- - Saving of about 20% waste, i.e. more marble will come out from each block. - Direct improvement in profit margin because the margin in the marble industry generally ranges between 10 percent to 30 percent. - Huge reduction in labor cost due to automation, which has made the operation faster and efficient. The company claims that through this machine they have gained first-mover advantage in the industry and the way to get ahead of the competitors has been cleared.
Big opportunity for black granite mining in Odisha Oriental Trimax has received a formal lease for the Jer Black Granite mine from the Odisha government on 21 May 2025. With this, the company is now entering the granite segment along with marble. Preparations to start mining work have been completed this quarter and commercial production is expected to start soon. The company is in talks with several international partners in the Middle East and Far East, with a deal with a Vietnamese company in the final stages. This move will not only strengthen the company's product portfolio, but will also increase its global footprint through exports.
These steps will strengthen the company The combination of technology and natural resources can take Oriental Trimax to new heights in the marble and granite industry. While there are preparations to increase margins with smart cut machines, the strategy to grow through mining in Odisha and strengthen its hold in the global market is clearly visible. Both these steps will not only strengthen the company in the current market, but can also open the way for sustainable profits for the future.
