To cater growing demand

With the commissioning of the third unit, Epack Prefab said it will cater to the growing demand for pre-engineered structures in the domestic as well as the international markets.

Nikhil Bothra, Director of Epack Prefab in the Middle East and Africa said there has been a significant demand in these regions for pre-engineered structures and Indian products are held in high regard for their cost-effectiveness and exceptional quality, making them the preferred choice.

“Pre-engineered structures are gaining prominence in the construction industry due to their sustainability features, which include minimal dust emissions, up to 60 percent lower carbon emissions, and a time-saving advantage of up to 50 per cent when compared to traditional construction practices involving bricks and cement,” he said.

Pre-engineered structures cater to a wide range of industries, including cement, retail, automotive, aviation, and hospitality.
