Business Overview
  
We are a manufacturer and provider of CPVC piping and plumbing systems in 
India since 1999. We are the first licensee of Noveon, USA (formerly known as 
Specialty Chemical Divison of B.F Goodrich, USA) to manufacture and market 
CPVC piping and plumbing system in India. In order to strengthen our business 
plans, we entered into a techno-financial joint venture with Specialty Process LLC 
of USA, which provided us the required technical expertise for manufacturing our 
CPVC pipes and fittings for home and industrial application. Over the years, we 
have expanded and enhanced our product lines to provide continually improved 
services to our customers. As a manufacturer of CPVC pipes and fittings for hot 
and cold water, industrial and pressure systems application, we had introduced 
a new product range in lead free PVC pressure pipes and fittings in the year 2004. 
With a concept of providing a one-stop source for all the plastic piping systems, 
we also began trading in products such as CPVC and PVC fittings, flanges and 
valves from Spears (USA), solvent cements (adhesive solutions) for joining pipes 
and fittings from IPSC (USA), underground specialty fittings from Hunter (U.K) 
and CPVC and PVC plastic pipes of a larger diameter from Harvell Inc. (USA)
  
Our Company has its production facilities at Gujarat and Himachal Pradesh to 
manufacture plumbing systems from «" to 8" diameter. Our products include 
CPVC pipes and fittings for hot and cold water plumbing systems, CPVC industrial
