Rajesh Pajnoo, President, Pipes Division, Hsil Ltd Talks to the Et Polymers About Its Entry in the Pipes Market.
Please tell us about HSIL’s entry into pipes market.
HSIL launched its pipes business under brand name TRUFLO by Hindware. We decided to venture into household plumbing pipes segment in 2015 to provide integrated solution for home building, enhance customer convenience, facilitate cross-sale and extend the existing building products distribution to the hardware channel distribution chain for the pipes sub-segment.
The recent shift in preference for quality material like CPVC and UPVC prompted us to enter this sector, as it is an extension of our current offerings that enables us to be a front of wall’ to ‘behind the wall’, comprehensive bathroom solution provider.
PVC pipes and fittings market, which comprises of segments such as PVC, UPVC and CPVC, has witnessed a remarkable growth in the past decade and a half, due to increase in demand from the real estate and construction industry. Rising acceptance of CPVC pipes over galvanised or PVC pipes will lead for it to grow faster than the other pipes segment. This trend, size and industry growth attracted us to this business.
HSIL’s main business is into sanitary ware and bath fittings. Can you please tell us pipe division’s contribution in the group’s revenue?

This is demonstrated by the new VEOCEL⢠branded lyocell fibres which have the capacity to provide a high level of comfort, softness and dryness, when applied in these types of products.
Simulating Injection Molding for Efficiency
Producing high-quality, plastic injection-moulded parts more quickly and cost-effectively has become a critical factor for manufacturing success in todayâs global market. Instead of engaging in slow, expensive prototype iterations and test cycles to satisfy manufacturing requirements, designers, mold makers, and manufacturing professionals can leverage SOLIDWORKS® Plastics mold-filling simulation software to optimise parts for manufacturability, refine tooling to improve quality and shorten cycle times to reduce manufacturing costs

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.
