SSKV Techbuilds Pvt Ltd, based in Tirupur, is dedicated to providing sustainable and eco-friendly solutions and technologies to the garment manufacturing industry. Founded in 2017 by five partners with extensive experience in various segments of the garment sector, the company has broadened its scope to include textile mills, automobile manufacturers, glass manufacturers, FMCG product manufacturers, IT companies, and shopping malls. At the heart of SSKV’s mission is the goal of reducing the carbon footprint through eco-friendly and innovative technologies.
Foundation and Growth: From Garment Industry to Broader Applications
The ethos of SSKV Techbuilds is deeply rooted in sustainability. “Our very first project had a built-up area of 40,000 sq. feet and another of 20,000 sq. feet. This project became a showcase for our new and prospective customers, which led us to undertake approximately 30 projects within just one year,” shared Mr. Venkatesh K, Technical Director at SSKV Techbuilds, in an exclusive interview with The Textile Magazine.
Innovative Solutions: Energy Efficiency and Employee Comfort
SSKV Techbuilds began its journey by introducing advanced lighting systems, specifically designed to utilize natural light during the daytime while transitioning to energy-efficient LED lighting at night. “Our lighting systems are very energy-efficient, delivering 1.5 times more efficiency than market alternatives. For instance, if a competitor recommends 100 fixtures, we can achieve similar illumination with only 60 to 70 fixtures,” explained Mr. Venkatesh. The LED lighting provided by SSKV also comes with an impressive five-year warranty, surpassing the one-year warranty typical of many competitors.
In addition to lighting, the company offers a sophisticated ventilation system that promotes a healthier work environment. By introducing fresh air from outside and reducing internal carbon dioxide (CO2) levels, this system helps alleviate employee fatigue, thereby enhancing productivity. “This solution is also more cost-effective than the number of fans a factory would typically install,” Mr. Venkatesh noted.
Comprehensive Energy Solutions: Monitoring and Distribution
The third vertical of SSKV’s offerings focuses on energy distribution, which includes modular, reusable, and flexible electric wire cabling. This innovative system allows for easy operation and maintenance, eliminating the need for electricians for minor repairs. Alongside this, SSKV supplies an energy monitoring system that enables customers to track energy consumption across all machinery. “Customers can identify energy-intensive machines and take corrective measures, with an alarm system that activates in case of excessive energy usage,” he added.
Optimizing Space: Advanced Warehousing Solutions
Recognizing the rising costs of space, SSKV also provides intelligent warehousing solutions. The company offers racking systems designed to maximize vertical space usage, thereby saving 40-50% on land and building construction costs. These solutions include manual, semi-automatic, or fully automatic material handling systems. In the automated variant, the system is capable of precisely locating stored materials, enhancing efficiency in inventory management.
Comprehensive Garment Manufacturing Technologies
SSKV’s fifth vertical encompasses a complete range of technologies for garment manufacturing, starting from fabric inspection systems to cutting machines, sewing machines, and finishing equipment. “We are a one-stop solution for anyone looking to set up a garment factory,” Mr. Venkatesh explained. The company represents renowned brands such as Brother and Yamato in sewing machines and offers automated solutions tailored to factory needs.
A Global Perspective: Importing Expertise and Technology
SSKV Techbuilds imports cutting-edge technologies from leading countries, including Australia, the USA, Germany, and Japan. The integration of these solutions occurs locally, with a team of industry experts dedicated to creating customized solutions rather than simply selling products. “For each vertical, we have a specialized design team that scientifically evaluates solutions, ensuring we meet the unique requirements of each customer,” he said. When preparing project reports, SSKV provides multiple options for clients to choose from, allowing them to select solutions that align with their budget.
A Bright Future for SSKV Techbuilds
With its head office in Tirupur and seven additional offices across South India, SSKV Techbuilds has established a strong presence in the industry, along with channel partners in North India. The company has successfully completed substantial projects across Tirupur, Coimbatore, Bengaluru, Gujarat, and beyond, responding to customer demand by also offering turnkey project solutions.
Within the textile mills sector, the company has successfully executed projects for esteemed clients like SSM Group, Sarvana Spinning Mills, KM Knitwear, and Vardhman Group, among others. Notably, SSKV is also expanding its reach internationally, with ongoing projects in Ethiopia, Jordan, Benin, and Bangladesh. As SSKV Techbuilds continues to innovate and grow, it remains steadfast in its commitment to offering sustainable and eco-friendly solutions in the manufacturing industry.
