Refex Industries is one of India’s leading business organisations, serving across different business lines such as refrigerant gases, ash and coal handling, green mobility, and power trading.
It is a specialist manufacturer and re-filler of refrigerant gases in India, particularly, environmentally acceptable gases that are replacements for chloro-fluoro-carbons (CFCs). These are used primarily as refrigerants, foam-blowing agents, and aerosol propellants.
It also offers services for handling and disposing of fly ash, crushing uncrushed coal, and trading coal to power plants. The company, in 2022, forayed into the supply of electricity and other services to power users, producers, state electricity boards, and distribution companies.
Refex Industries gets the majority of its revenue from the Ash & Coal Handling segment, which in Q1 FY25 accounted for 94 per cent. It aims to be a full-service partner for power plants, using its own fleet of vehicles to transport ash, which has improved profit margins and reduced costs.
With the help of a fleet of more than 800 vehicles, around 5 million tonnes of ash were disposed of in FY24, an increase of over 30 per cent from the year before. With an emphasis on road projects under the Bharatmala Pariyojana initiative, a sizable number of new clients are included, including NTPC in Chhattisgarh, Bihar, and Karnataka, as well as Adani and MP and other state power plants.
With operations in NTPC, their joint ventures, state-owned power plants, and private power plants, the company's expansion has established it as the largest organised ash management service provider in the nation, according to its FY24 annual report.
Refex Industries aims to become a leading business partner by leveraging its innovative solutions, advanced technology, and skilled team. The company focuses on expanding its vendor network and entering new markets for its refrigerant products while aiming to exceed client expectations.
It is also working to secure large contracts with OEMs and the Indian government. The company is increasing its refrigerant refilling facilities across India, which is expected to boost future income. Additionally, the company's ash business is set to grow, with plans to expand distribution beyond Chhattisgarh to several other states.
