Enlight Metals Expands Infrastructure Materials Portfolio with GI Earthing Strips

Enlight Metals, an agentic AI-enabled metal procurement platform, has expanded its infrastructure materials portfolio with the introduction of GI Earthing Strips, strengthening its focus on supplying critical materials for India’s rapidly expanding energy and infrastructure ecosystem.

Manufactured using the company’s capabilities in steel processing, precision slitting and cutting, galvanization and bulk production, the GI Earthing Strips range covers dimensions from 20 x 3 mm το 100 x 16 mm. The products are designed for applications across power plants, electrical substations, transmission networks, industrial facilities, oil and gas and petrochemical plants, data centres and solar power projects.

India’s infrastructure expansion is creating increasing demand for reliable electrical grounding systems. The country had 288.58 GW of installed renewable energy capacity as of June 30, 2026, including 162.15 GW of solar capacity, while transmission infrastructure is being planned to integrate more than 500 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030. Enlight Metals sees GI Earthing Strips as a strategic growth category within this expanding infrastructure opportunity.

Vedant Goel, Director, Enlight Metals, said, “India’s next infrastructure challenge is not simply building more capacity. It is building infrastructure that is safe, resilient and capable of operating reliably for decades. GI Earthing Strips may be a small component of a larger project, but reliable grounding is fundamental to electrical safety and long-term infrastructure performance.”

The company is pursuing a B2B, project-led go-to-market strategy, targeting EPC companies, electrical contractors, infrastructure developers, industrial enterprises and institutional procurement teams. Enlight Metals plans to differentiate through product consistency, quality, corrosion resistance, dimensional accuracy and supply reliability, rather than competing on price alone.

While the company does not intend to assign a specific percentage to the category’s revenue contribution at this stage, it views GI Earthing Strips as an important part of its transition from a traditional metals business towards a broader infrastructure materials company. The immediate focus will be on building manufacturing capabilities, strengthening project relationships and generating repeat B2B demand.

Goel further added, “Our ambition is bigger than adding another product to our portfolio. As India builds renewable energy projects, transmission networks, manufacturing facilities and data centres at scale, we want Enlight Metals to contribute to the material foundation that makes this infrastructure safer, more reliable and more resilient.”
