Our Company stands out among wood based industries in the country to have pioneered the concept of Prelaminated Particle Board way back in the last two decades. The Particle Boards, at that time, were not acceptable as a substitute for Plywood or Block Board due to its poor quality and sustainability to the practices of Indian Carpentry. Lavis Signature Panels Pvt.Ltd started by bringing the best available technology. Our Company was an instrumental in developing the product tailor made to the Indian Furniture and Carpentry needs to make it an equivalent substitute for Plywood Laminate Combination.
To enhance the image of Particle Board in the Country, our Company developed the Indian Standards IS 12823 for Prelam Boards, Prelaminated Particle Board is like a consumable item for all domestic and office furniture needs. Our Company, from the beginning, aimed to develop the same status for Particle Board in India. The result of that is seen today with every office using Pre-laminated Particle Board.
Within few years of commencing the Commercial Production, our Company launched backward and forward intergradations by setting-up their own Resin Manufacturing Facility as well as Mechanized Furniture Factory. The key to the acceptability of Particle Board is Quality of Synthetic Resin used specially for lamination as the Abrasion Resistance, Scratch Resistance, Resistance of Stains depend on it.
Although, in the beginning, the growth of Particle Board Industry was slow, mainly, due to inertia from the Carpentry Segment, the usage of Particle Board by more and more Mechanized Furniture Manufacturing Companies is increased. During the year 2001-2002, the demand for Particle Board increased beyond its capacity. We have taken care of modern concept of manufacturing activity in our Plant.
During the last year, the demand for Particle Board has increased so high that imports from South East Asia have become a major factor. To cater to this demand, our Company increased our laminating capacity. In the field of developing new products with latest technology, our R & D Department is continuously working on the same and will announce to the markets as and when we develop new Products.
