Presently, the Company is engaged in manufacture of Spirally Bound HDPE/PP Pipes, Vessels, Tanks, etc. The manufacturing facilities of the Company are at Daman, U.T.Kunststoffe Industries are the leading manufacturers of large diameters HDPE/PP pipes ranging from 300mm to 3600mm internal diameters. The pipes are manufactured by using a unique spiral Winding technology. The process operates on the principle of Computeraideddesign (CAD) and computer aided manufacture (CAM). This enables them to design, manufacture and supply pipes to meet the specific needs of customers.This process is completely different from the normal extrusion process used in the manufacture of HDPE and PP pipes. In the standard process, the extrudate comes out in the shape of a pipe which is subsequently cooled and cut to the required lengths. As against this, in the spiral winding process the plasticised melt is wound on a rotating mandrel to produce a pipe.In the spiral winding process, the pipes are not supplied off the shelf but are designed on the basis of operating conditions at site. Factors like soil type overground or underground application, depth of burial, traffic loads, internal pressure etc., are taken into consideration in recommending the appropriate pipe.The company made a rights issue in Mar.95 of 39.5 lac equity shares at a premium of Rs 5 aggregating Rs 5.92 cr.
