Petrofossil has announced plans to establish a new 100 tons per day refining facility in Palakkad, Kerala, marking a significant step in its expansion across South India. The upcoming plant is designed as a modern refining unit equipped with advanced processing systems and strong quality control infrastructure. Once operational, the facility will increase Petrofossil’s production capacity to support the growing demand for lubricants and base oils across regional, national and international markets.

Kerala is steadily emerging as a high-value manufacturing and energy hub, supported by strong infrastructure, skilled talent, and a growing industrial ecosystem. Government initiatives and industrial policies are positioning Kerala as a center for advanced manufacturing, research, and industrial growth . Within this ecosystem, Palakkad is emerging as a key industrial zone, offering strong connectivity and access to both Kerala and Tamil Nadu markets, creating the ideal environment for an international player like Petrofossil to enter the market.

The new facility is expected to contribute to the local economy by creating employment, supporting allied industries, and strengthening regional supply chains. This facility will help Petrofossil play a larger role in the global energy market by delivering high-quality, efficiently processed petroleum products.
