What has been the role played by Neotech in the overall growth of the Construction and Earthmoving Equipment Sector in India through its products and what is its USP?
Neotech Equipments originated in the year 1993 with a clear idea of promoting and introducing latest technologies pertaining to reduction of manual intervention and environment friendliness in the Indian sub-continent. We, over the years, with our collaboration with companies such as – Hy-Power, Olaer Hydraulics, A.R Engineering, Power-Jac Systems, Universal Conveyors & Precision Tools, Micro-Flat Datums, Formeco have found a niche in providing consultation and solution to our customer for their problems to process waste recycling mainly to liquids, apart from other product categories where we are functioning.

We provide solution for in-house recycling, recovering and reusing of – Hydraulic Oil, Coolant, Cutting Oil, industrial Solvents, Organic Solvents, and Water used in daily plant operations. As service and solution provider, we are glad to say that for every 9 out of 10 Two wheelers rolled on Indian roads, our environment-friendly Solutions are some-how responsible for Recycling / Recovering and Reuse of waste Streams, we hope to similarly replicate the same for Heavy Machinery / Earthmoving Equipment Industry which is poised for immense growth in near future in India.

Any recent technological marvel or innovative products in your port-folio which you would like to share with us?
We have recently tied-up with FOREMCO, who are a environment specialist company based in Italy and market leaders in Solvent Recovery systems & Waste Water Treatment plants, as industrial solvents (Organic) find their use in most of the production industries as cleaning agents etc. The demand for the product is high and we have already tapped major automotive companies (Paint Shops) such as – Honda, Yamaha, Bajaj, M&M to name a few.


Through Excon exhibition we wish to spread the awareness about these, simple to use products in the Construction and Earthmoving Equipment sector. Currently, only ALSTON and CATTERPILLAR India pertaining to this industry both being MNCs are our customers for this technology which is a resultant of their group's initiatives to transfer technologies from one global location to another transparently.

What are your complete product ranges? Also please tell us about the advanced technical and engineering attributes of your products that give you advantage over your competitors?
As a promoter of upcoming technologies, Neotech has a wide range of products which can be classified into 5 broad categories:

1. Hydraulic Automation and Accessories
2. Material Handling and Storage Solution
3. Maintenance Equipment: for longevity of Hydraulic / Rotary components and machines. (Lubrication, Mounting-Dismounting, Alignment, testing, sampling)
4. Precision Inspection Equipment
5. Filtration & Separation: Cutting oil, Coolants, Hydrualic Oil, organic Solvents, Water.

Every principal product promoted by us is supplied to all Tier 1 and tier 2 manufacturers and process plants from industry sectors such as – Oil & Gas, Automotive, Auto Components, Fertilizers, Power Sector, Heavy Machinery, Farm Equipments etc.

Thus, we are proud to be associated with companies which uphold Quality as the key differentiating parameter in their products in comparison to other manufactures.

We have also increased our servicing staff keeping the importance of after sales service in mind in B2B sector, as we believe any sort of downtime resulting from our products leads to a downward slide of reputation that we hold with our customers.

What is the prevailing market conditions for your sector and what are your forecasts for the future? Could you please reveal about Neotech's future plans to strengthen its position in the country?
A sorry state of affairs is that in order to convince a customer or a company to focus on recycling and green technology is by making them think about the Monetary Savings such systems will bring to them and their organizations, being said so; we believe that focus on Green technologies is slowly picking up pace in the Indian manufacturing sector, with SWACH BHARAT ABHIYAN and other Govt. supported initiates being rolled out the industries acceptance towards such products and technologies is gradually increasing.

If we really want to improve the condition of our working space and reduce our contribution towards degrading the environment, I strongly believe that we will have to incorporate such technologies. To put it clearly, we cannot carry on the ongoing trend of putting the onus of cleaning our mess on someone else.

Future Plans:
As a company policy, we have shifted our focus more towards Environmental technologies, and are also planning to diversify our organization into two verticals broadly Industrial & Environmental; so as not to dilute the importance of either of these aspects for a sustainable and technologically advanced society.
