Creating Better Environment

With great zeal and enthusiasm, Aditya Borkar is taking ahead the legacy of Borkar Polymers, which is popularly known as Boroplast. A small enterprise that had a humble beginning in 1980s, has now taken a shape and is creating better environment to live in for a common man. Speaking about the beginning, he says, “The company was started by my father Dr. Shyam Borkar. Despite of he being doctor, he followed his dreams and laid the foundation of Borkar Polymers.”

Initially, the company manufactured polymers based hard boards which found their applications in industrial use. Since then, the company has come a long way. With some ups and downs in the journey what remained constant is determination to succeed.

Aditya joined the company in 2002 after completing his engineering. He brought a completely new approach to the company. Then, the company had fibre reinforced plastics (FRP) solutions in its kitty and mostly dealt in government clients. Today, amongst others, the company’s expertise lies in prefabs.

With prefabs, a common man’s thinking perhaps is limited to construction site cabins, vending stalls, temporary offices, etc. Going beyond the traditional way of thinking, the company’s prefabs range is expanded to ATMs, banks, sanitation, etc.

Aditya is extremely excited about prefab portable ATMs. “This is a boon to the banking industry. One of the major advantages include cost-effectiveness and flexibility. The bank’s investment is not wasted in case the ATM is no more needed at a particular spot. It can simply be lifted along with whatever it houses such as the cash dispensing machine, air conditioner, floor tiling, glass door, etc. by a crane. Furthermore, it can be transported via truck to another location and easily be placed where it is required,” he explains.

iglidur I151 for FDA-compliant, Detectable, Wear Resistant Parts In Food Technology

igus has developed a blue, food-compatible tribo-filament for cost effective 3D printing of special parts. iglidur I151 is blue, prints easily, and has an optimal coefficient of friction and wear. The new tribo-filament is a refinement of the easy-to-machine igus iglidur I150 all-rounder filament. Because it is blue, it can be used to manufacture special parts that are optically detectable in the food industry. Food compatibility according to the FDA and to EU Regulation 10/2011 also qualifies the high-performance polymer for use in the food and cosmetics industries.
