We have recently inaugurated a dedicated R&D labThe innumerable construction and infrastructure development projects are factors that drive demand for crushers and screens. The retail market for construction is also fuelling demand. The ban on the usage of river sand is helping the crushing and screening industry thrive. 鈥淔urther, there has always been huge investment happening in the Indian aggregates industry as our country is one of the largest global consumers of aggregates,鈥� says V Senthilkumar, Managing Director, Propel Industries. 鈥淎nd so, the products manufactured by us are in great demand and it is only increasing manifold,鈥� he adds, as he shares more on the industry and the company鈥檚 offerings.

What鈥檚 your annual investment in R&D? We are increasing our investment in R&D and have recently inaugurated a dedicated R&D lab. A lot of thought has gone into building the infrastructure needed to measure and analyse specific gravity, water absorption, bulk density, bulking, slit, flakiness, elongation, abrasion and impact, among others. The R&D lab is equipped with an abrasion tester, flakiness tester, elongation tester, compression/crushing tester, impact tester and equipment for sieve analysis. The properties of the rocks and minerals thus tested will act as a guiding tool for customers. Testing will enable the customer to understand the feed gradation for the input material, determine the shape and size of the aggregate, analyse the properties of the sand and check if it is as per the IS:383/IS: 1542 standards and understand strength and durability. What are your target avenues and growth prospects for FY21-22? We are targeting higher output plants for FY21-22. We are exploring new markets, both inside and outside the country. As of now, we are present in 14 countries and we want to establish our brand in many other countries in coming years. We are investing in R&D to increase the performance of our equipment. We have recently launched concrete batching plants. The multiple batching solutions from us come with twin-shaft or planetary mixers. The Pro-Series of the Propel batching plant is proving to be a great hit among customers.
