Overview:
Group is engaged in the
manufacture and sale of innovative polymer
products to industries like paint, personal
care, agro chemicals, health care, confectionary,
lube and retail household products.
HPL started its operations in December 1993,
by manufacturing thin walled cylindrical,
injection moulded, plastic containers referred
as “BoCans” – a product
invented and patented by a technocrat, Mr.
Eric Bock of Denmark, primarily for paint
customers. With a vision to grow HPL expanded
its range of products to include tapered pails
designed and manufactured in-house to cater
to customer requirements. Currently, it offers
containers in the size of 1/5 ltr to 20 ltrs.
In the years that followed, HPL set up production
facilities at five geographical different
locations and thus established national presence.
HPL started initially to cater to the packaging
requirements of paint industry. Subsequently,
it identified different industrial segments
and added light- weight pails to cater to
the requirements of chemicals and other industrial
applications. The entire range of products
has been designed and manufactured in-house.
This product is also receiving increasing
acceptance by different industries.
HPL later entered into a technical collaboration
with M/S CHT Design Services Pty. Ltd, Australia
to manufacture their patented design of 20
litre containers known as DG Pail. This product
has found increasing acceptance by the lubricants,
paints, chemicals, and food industries. It
also offers a similar product of 10 litre
capacity to cater to the above markets. HPL
has continuously upgraded its product range
and technology by investing in new moulds,
machines and technical know-how.
HPL has during the years developed an in-house
mould design facilities manned by experienced
and qualified engineers who with the help
of latest computer aided design hardware and
software are capable of designing various
sophisticated moulds to meet emerging customer
requirements. It has established a modern
tool room consisting of CNC lathes and milling
machines for mould maintenance as well as
for making new moulds. Acquisition
(inorganic growth):
To further consolidate
its market share in polymer products, to
broad-base the industrial service and de-risk
its exposure to paint industry, in 2003-2004,
HPL acquired companies manufacturing plastic
rigid containers from 20 ml to 5 litres,
under the banner of Clear Plastics Limited.
Further, in 2006-07, HPL acquired companies
manufacturing plastic rigid containers from
5 ml to 8 litres, under the banner Mipak
