We started with a production of 25 tons of Plaster of Paris per day before 8 years and now we increased our production to the tune of 80 tons to 90 tons per day.
We expect the production to touch 120 tons to 150 tons when our unit expansion takes off.
Gypsum is a by-product which is available from the Salt Pan Areas. It is available in two grades. The first grade requires perfect washing to remove excess salt through the washing unit. This grade is normally consumed by the units producing Plaster of Paris. The second grade is one which escapes from the process washing process. This grade plays a leading role in the form of raw material getting mixed in the manufacture of Cement. It is certainly required by the leading cement manufacturing units based in the Southern States.

No doubt, this business frequently suffers from natural forces like rain and bad weather conditions. The company has upgraded the harvesting system and so the process of picking up the crop has become easier.

We started our marketing from Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. We are proud in stating that now our marketing area spread over all the states in South India i.e Tamilnadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Andra Pradesh, Pondicherry and Goa.
It is essential to state here the reasons for constant demand for our Roshan Plaster of Paris.
Because of the importance and value of Plaster of Paris, there is wide spread
demand among the people everywhere. Owing to this reason, the Plaster of Paris
plants were increased in large numbers. This results a heavy demand for quality Gypsum. The port city, Tuticorin finds it very difficult to meet the demands of Salt Pan Gypsum.
Due to the change of Government policies and frequent disturbances of strike by the truckers, the business has suffered from upgrading the existing business environment.
However, efforts and steps are always taken to efficiently adopt the Government's policy to cope up with the fluctuating market conditions. The rich experience earned by the company over the past number of years automatically becomes a ladder to avoid any abnormal hindrances during the operation of the business.
In addition in rainy seasons and at the time of raining, we find it very difficult to get quality raw material i.e. washed and dried Gypsum. So we intended to import quality Gypsum from abroad to meet our demand and by which both our production and quality of Plaster of Paris will be increased.
