Conference Background

Even though the tree plantation is adding to the ‘artificial forests’ of the country, the natural forest coverage in India has actually declined on account of climatic changes and human activities including mining, power generation and road connectivity. This loss of natural resource is also creating serious environmental problems for reportedly every human being needs daily oxygen produced by 16 big trees whereas in India 36 persons share single tree for fresh air!

uPVC (unplasticized PVC) profiles is the perfect solution which besides saving the natural resource, offer numerous techno commercial advantages over the traditional materials!

Globally profile sector enjoys a share of around 20 %; however in India it is just at <5 %. China’s consumption of PVC in profile sector is more than 1.5 times the total PVC consumed in India in all the end use sectors. Considering the mammoth growth in the infrastructure sector and the growing awareness of ‘Green Building Concept’, uPVC profiles have a fantastic market potential in India.

In India, the uPVC profile industry is focused around hollow panel profiles which are used for door shutters, partitions, false ceilings, porta cabins, etc. and casing – capping, cable trays and decorative profiles. A small volume of PVC also goes into making of niche products such as edge and T Bands for furniture industry, customized profiles (as OEM supplies), flexible profiles for gasketting/weather sealing in white goods and automotive Industry.

In recent years, multi-chambered window & door profiles sector has started growing because of the increasing awareness of energy and environment conservation. Many a builders are seen highlighting energy saving on account of the usage of uPVC windows in their projects. Energy Conservation Building Code (ECBC) and Bureau of Energy Efficiency also appreciate the energy saving by using uPVC windows in place of traditional metallic windows.

The conference is aimed at bringing together all those in the value chain on a common platform and covering the emerging opportunities, challenges and trends in the Indian uPVC profile market.
