Mamata Machinery Limited announced on August 4, 2026, that its recyclable packaging film technology, RecTech™, has received 100% Recyclability Certification in the European Union. The certification was granted by Institut cyclos-HTP GmbH, a Germany-based institute for recyclability assessment. This development validates the international commercial viability of the company’s mono-material film solution for brand owners and converters seeking recyclable packaging at scale.

The disclosure was made pursuant to Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The press release was signed by Madhuri Sharma, Company Secretary & Compliance Officer, and submitted to BSE Limited and The National Stock Exchange of India Limited.

RecTech™ was originally launched at Plastindia 2026 in February 2026. It is an advanced, fully recyclable mono-material film engineered to deliver superior barrier protection and mechanical performance compared to conventional non-recyclable composite film structures. Since its launch, the film has undergone various tests in India and globally to validate its functionality and recyclability.

Certification Timeline

The European certification complements earlier validations obtained in India. The following table outlines the certification status of RecTech™:

The film’s recyclability was first certified in India by CIPET, Bengaluru, vide certification dated May 22, 2026. Its functionality regarding oxygen and water vapour barrier performance was certified by the Indian Institute of Packaging (IIP), Kolkata. The European certification from cyclos-HTP adds international validation to these credentials.

Market Implications

Certification from the Association of Plastic Recyclers (APR) in the USA is currently awaited. Once received, it will further establish the commercial viability of the film. Together, these validations make a strong case for the adoption of the RecTech™ solution by brand owners and converters seeking recyclable packaging at scale and competitive prices.

What the Numbers Show

The progression of certifications demonstrates a structured global validation strategy for RecTech™. By securing Indian certifications (CIPET and IIP) prior to the EU certification, Mamata Machinery established a baseline of functional and recyclability performance before seeking broader international recognition. The pending APR certification represents the final key market validation needed to position RecTech™ as a globally compliant recyclable packaging solution. This sequential approach reduces technical risk for early adopters in regulated markets like Europe while building a comprehensive case for US market entry upon APR approval.

Mamata Machinery Limited resumed manufacturing operations at its Ahmedabad plant on July 30, 2026, ending a five-day shutdown caused by severe flooding. The facility, located at Survey No. 423/P in Sanand, had suspended production on July 25, 2026, due to unprecedented heavy rainfall and waterlogging. Management confirmed that flood waters have substantially receded and necessary restoration activities are complete, allowing for the restart of production schedules. This resumption mitigates immediate revenue loss risks, though the company continues to assess the overall financial impact.

The update follows a disclosure made pursuant to Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. The company had previously notified stock exchanges of the operational halt, citing natural calamity risks. While operations have restarted, Mamata Machinery continues to assess the overall financial and operational impact of the incident. The company reiterated that all assets are adequately insured and the insurer has been intimated about the event.

Operational Timeline and Status

The disruption began on July 25, 2026, when heavy rainfall triggered flood-like conditions in the Ahmedabad region, affecting areas including Changodar and Bavla. Water levels remained high for several days, preventing safe access and operation of machinery. By July 30, 2026, water levels had dropped sufficiently to allow cleanup and inspection. Management, led by Company Secretary Madhuri Sharma, oversaw the restoration process to ensure safety compliance before restarting lines.

Impact Assessment and Insurance

Although production has restarted, the company is still evaluating the extent of any damage or loss incurred during the five-day halt. No specific quantum of financial loss has been quantified yet. The insurance coverage remains valid for the assets involved, and claims processes may follow once the assessment is finalized. The company stated it will continue to update stakeholders on material developments as required by SEBI regulations.

What the Numbers Show

The swift resumption of operations within five days suggests that the flooding, while severe enough to halt production, did not cause catastrophic structural damage to the core manufacturing infrastructure. The reliance on insurance coverage indicates a standard risk mitigation strategy for natural calamities, protecting the balance sheet from immediate write-downs pending final claim settlements.
