INOX Air Products (INOXAP), a producer of industrial and electronic gases has announced to invest in a manufacturing hub in Gujarat to support India’s semiconductor and OSAT (Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test) sectors.
The company has already acquired a land parcel in Dholera, Gujarat, for construction of an Electronic Specialty Gas Hub which is currently in advanced stage of planning.
The upcoming Hub will manufacture and supply Ultra High Purity (UHP) bulk and specialty gases—including Nitrogen, Oxygen, Argon, Hydrogen—essential for advanced semiconductor fabrication, the company said.
Designed as both a production and fulfilment centre, the Hub will ensure reliable, contamination-free delivery to fabs and OSAT units across India.
This investment forms part of INOXAP’s ₹500 crore outlay to expanding purification capacities, building import-linked supply chains for critical gases, and deploying advanced transport and packaging solutions, the company said.
Siddharth Jain, Managing Director, INOX Air Products said, “With the Hub, we are building the foundation for a self-reliant supply chain that can power the ambitions of global chipmakers and electronic manufacturers choosing India for setting up fabs.”
“With a pan-India footprint, and decades of operational excellence, we are deploying the full breadth of our engineering and execution capabilities for creating a world-class infrastructure,” he added.
Specialty and bulk gases play a vital role in semiconductor fabrication, enabling precision in etching, deposition, doping, and chamber cleaning. Their ultra-high purity is essential to wafer integrity, device performance, and fabrication yield, the company said.
