PVC geomembranes are a critical product for the civil infrastructure development sector owing to their exceptional waterproofing capabilities, coupled with long service life touching over a 100 years, and unmatched potential for recycling make it a preferred product. In India’s PVC geomembrane manufacturing niche, RMG Polyvinyl India Ltd., a prominent player has carved its leadership, and set industry benchmarks.
The firm is the first Indian manufacturer of PVC geomembranes to get BIS 15909:2020 approval and conformity to 100 years durability test as per OBV Austria guidelines. Since Inception, RMG Polyvinyl India has supplied more than 4 million sqr. mtr. PVC geomembrane to various infrastructure projects like rail/ road tunnels, defence bunkers, metro rail projects, underpasses, basements for RVNL, IRCON, NHAI and defence projects.
RMG Polyvinyl India has established a state-of-the-art plant located at Secunderabad and another plant at Cheyyar Industrial Park, Tamil Nadu. An ISO 9001:2015 (system) approved company, RMG Polyvinyl India is one of the largest manufacturers and exporters in India with a capacity of 75,000 MT annually to produce PVC Flooring, PVC leather & PVC geomembranes and currently produces in excess of 60,000 MT.
Journey to Prominence
RMG Polyvinyl India was the first Indian company to produce PVC geomembrane in India meeting the EN standards. The product was developed under a Spanish technical collaboration and products were produced under a license and sold in various projects in India. At that time India was importing PVC geomembranes, so it was an import replacement under the ‘Make in India’ program.
Later on, the Bureau of Indian standards further improved the specs as per Indian conditions and again, RMG Polyvinyl India was the first Indian manufacturer to get approval from BIS as per IS 15909:2020 in 2021.
The company has a full fledged inhouse lab, equipped with the latest testing equipment. The factory is also approved by RDSO for PVC floorings and PVC upholstery cloth for use in Indian railways and also by reputed automotive companies like TATA motors, Mahindra, and Swaraj Mazda, to name a few.
“Having also achieved the IATF 16949:2016 certification and various certifications from international bodies, we also ensures consistency of product, promoting traceability of the product specifications for future use”, says Rishab Goenka, Head (Waterproofing Business), RMG Polyvinyl India.
RMG Polyvinyl India offers quality guarantees not only at the time of supply of its ‘WONDERPLAN' PVC geomembranes but even for several years after product has been installed. RMG Polyvinyl India's Pan India distribution network for its ‘WONDERFLOOR’ PVC floorings simplifies availability and is supported by 15 marketing offices located in key cities. These marketing offices also help in raising awareness about PVC geomembranes with project owners and guide them about salient features of BIS specifications.
Beyond its core business, the company stands out for prioritizing sustainability through various initiatives like adhering to ROHS and REACH requirements where applicable and utilizing processes that minimize energy consumption and waste generation by reusing any byproducts.
Bringing over 20 years of experience in the domain, and export experience across 40 countries, the company has enhanced its offerings steadily and strategically. Its global exposure arms the firm with deep insight into latest industry developments, particularly with regards to design and technology.
