Technocraft Industries (India) Ltd announced the launch of its MACH range of Scaffolding and Formworks solutions for the Indian construction and infrastructure industry.
Technocraft Industries (India) Ltd announced the launch of its MACH range of Scaffolding and Formworks solutions. Manufactured in India and for use in the Indian construction and infrastructure industry, the MACH range incorporates features and globally accepted stringent safety standards. Navneet Saraf, Director, Technocraft Industries (India) Ltd., says, "Our Scaffolding and Formworks solutions have earned a strong reputation in some of the most demanding markets worldwide. We are now launching the MACH range that incorporates the same high standards of quality for use in the Indian construction market."
He informed that the MACH range is manufactured with superlative precision and finish, and tested and proven to be truly international in quality and function. Plus, the scaffolding can be assembled and dismantled with speed, ease and total safety. "The new systems are easier to adapt, faster to use and less laborious. What normally takes 50 people five days to complete, MACH can do in two days with ten people, so the builder/contractor saves on the labour and time components in the project. Such products are currently available with only the high-end European brands, and we are making them in India and at a reasonable cost for the end-users. Our solutions will mark a major step forward for the country's growing need for safe, efficient and speedy construction," he adds.
The MACH brand will come as a boon to all developers, builders and contractors who will now have access to world-class solutions," comments Mudit Raniwala, Senior Vice President at Technocraft. "The Indian market for these solutions is partly catered to by several small scale manufacturers in the unorganized sector, but these products do not always have the quality and reliability required for critical applications. The safety features incorporated in MACH systems meet the international safety norms.The government's steps to eradicate the unorganized market, which takes shortcuts and avoids paying taxes, and for whom safety and onsite accidents are not big issues, will help the organized sector to bring in safer products," he adds.
The company is providing in-house training to construction site workers in association with NTTF, and a course for students on scaffolding and tool development.
