Formed in the year 1978, we have since then, gone on to become India’s foremost Rubber Lining

Companies. We are located in HOSUR, which is about 300 kms from Chennai Port and 40 kms

from Bangalore. We are situated on the National Highway and have easy access to all parts of the

Country. And the proximity to the Chennai Port gives us access to the Globe.BY VISION

Since inception, some four decades back, we have steadily grown to reach the position of

eminence we hold today because our founder Mr.V.Vajravel envisioned a future where we would

hold sway and define the new direction in whatever we set out to do.

Today, we are the leading name in the area of rubber lining in the country, bringing our brand of

expertise across a wide spectrum of industries. In fact, our area of competence extends beyond

rubber lining and includes fabrication of tanks, vessels, pipes and fittings, outlet boxes, heater

shells, tube holder plates, dished ends, evaporators, rubber dredging hoses, slurry & transfer

hoses, rise dehusking rollers, pulleys, gaskets and moulded components. We have also carried

out various site rubber lining of phosphoric acid storage tanks, DM water tanks, HCL acid storage

tanks etc., apart from specific services for the mining industry.

Corrosion and Abrasion cause damages worth Billions of

Rupees in the Industry. Our Corrosion and Abrasion Resistant

Rubber Lining prevents such damage which results in sizable

savings throughout the Industry. Our presence not just in

India but across the globe is a measure of our standing in

this field. We are specialist in supply of all MSRL Equipment

for Multi-Stage Fusion Evaporator(MSFE) Projects’ and we

have executed major projects for Staple Fibre and Viscose

Rayon Manufactures in India, Thailand and Indonesia. So far

,we have supplied more than 800 Tube Holder Plates,300

Evaporators,300 Re-Boilers and 700 Dish Ends for Re-Boilers.

These are the equipment used in Spin Bath application to

with stand very high temperatures of 130 deg.”C”.

We are the most successful Rubber Liner in India especially

for MSFE Equipment like Re-Boilers, Tube Plates and

Evaporators to withstand temperatures up to 130 Degree

Celsius. We have served all the Staple Fibre Viscose Rayon

Plants in India and also in Thailand and Indonesia.

For than a decade, backed by constant R&D, we have

established our presence in site rubber lining in industries as

diverse as fertilizer process plants, chloro alkali and caustic

soda plants among other chemical industries.

Another area where we have brought our expertise to bear is

by serving sea and river dredgers with our rubber dredging

hoses, expansion joints/bellows that can withstand up to

25Kg working pressure of all sizes. We also manufacture and

supply Tanks, Vessels, Pipes & Fittings, Sand Filters, Agitators,

Outlet Boxes, Heater Shells etc.

We have done site Rubber Lining of Phosphoric Acid Tanks,

DM Water Tanks, Slurry Tanks, Launders, Chutes etc.

Ultimately, everything comes down to quality. Our success has been achieved by our unswerving

commitment to adherence to the highest quality standards. Everything from sourcing of the raw

material to the manufacturing process adhere to the highest quality standards which finds its

reflection in the quality of the end product. What’s more, stringent quality tests are carried across

all stages of manufacture to ensure that the standards set are successfully met.

Our quality assurance program, in fact, is quite comprehensive and covers all aspect of manufacture.

We also ensure quality by staying open to the changes that impact the industry and stay on the

cutting edge through up gradation, training programmes and innovations.
