GLOBAL PRESENCE
Khosla Profil has a global presence. 2/3 rd of the company’s production is exported over 64 countries around the world, with its key export markets being USA, Europe, and South America. The company faced the Covid situation quite bravely. Since it’s a manufacturer of filter fabric for the pharma Industry it was allowed production soon after the lockdown.
The company has continued check-ups of its stall/employees, every 15 days and ensured that they are healthy & safe. The company feels that the new Textile Minister is highly focused and enhancing both the production and exports of Technical Textiles. However, it felt that to its surprise the Indutech sector in which it is functioning, has been completely left out of the PLI scheme. The company has represented strongly for the same.
EXPANSION PLANS
The company has got expansion plans in the pipeline. It had invested over Rs. 100crore in the last 2 years to enhance its production capacity. The company is planning further Rs. 100crore investment in the coming year for balancing equipment and expanding nonwoven capacity. While Khosla Profil is operating in a highly competitive segment, it is confident of its competitive edge, due to certain key factors, that sets it apart from the others. One of them is the company’s vast experience and knowledge bundled with its state -of – art equipment from the best manufacturers from Europe which gives it a huge edge and USP above any other manufacturers in India. Khosla Profil offers superior knowledge in fabric engineering and correct selection of fabric based on studying process parameters, to its customers.
NEW LAUNCH
The company shares a good relationship with Messe Frankfurt India. It was the first company from India to exhibit both in Frankfurt and Atlanta, never missing a show thereafter. The company feels that the Techtextil shows, both international and domestic have always helped it significantly to showcase its products and find new customers. The company is planning to launch a new product for nonwoven high temperature filtration media with special lamination produced in-house at its new plant. It will be done in person. Khosla Profil’s vision for the immediate future is to aim to achieve over Rs.750crore turnover by 2025-26.
