Urja Products Pvt. Ltd.

UNNATI means progress. We all know how important it is to progress in life. Since we deal with progressive fabrics (second, third, fourth generation fabrics) the name Unnati was given to our firm which was established in the year 1969.URJA means energy. We all know how important it is to conserve energy. Since we deal with fabrics that help in conserving energy the name Urja Products was given to our firm which was thereafter established in the year 1989.

Our founder, Late Shri Gautam S. Nanavaty, had the experience of running a composite textile mill having 650 Looms and 40000-odd Spindles. With the desire to bring some thing new to India, he ventured into the field of Technical Textiles selecting Fiber Glass as the base. Polypropylene, Nylon, Polyester, Acrylic, Mod-Acrylic, Nomex, Aramid, Peek, Carbon fiber and other fibers followed suit. Fiber Glass with its versatile properties is used for many an application. So was borne Unnati in the year 1969 with two looms, a stationary oven, and a coating tower. The name Unnati has become synonymous with Fiber Glass Fabrics over the last four decades. Urja, a private limited company, was formed with a view to manufacture Silica fabrics. Unnati was merged into Urja Products thus widening the horizons for URJA, which is now located at two sites one kilometer away from each other.
