The Back History

It was in the 1980s that we started trading of cast iron pipes and entered into the manufacturing field with the production and machining of cast iron double flanged pipes. In 1990 we formally started the production of cast iron pipes by De Lavaud centrifugal casting process under the name of Kapilansh Dhatu Udyog Pvt. Ltd. We adopted best industry practices. Integrated research and development to make our products superior and competitive.

Soon, we forayed into making 80 mm pipes of 5.5 mtr length which was not done by anyone in the industry then. Gradually, we came up with a full-fledged foundry. In the year 2000 we started concentrating on pipe production.

In 2004-05 we came up with a complete range of centrifugally cast iron soil pipes and fittings as per IS:3989. These are better known globally as rainwater or drainage pipes & fittings used for drainage, sewage and ventilation.

Then we pivoted to manufacturing the long lasting cast iron earthing electrodes marketed as Kapitrode™. We also introduced the hinged type earth pit covers which keep the earthing installation safe. They ensure protection to all electrical & electronic appliances, computers and human and animal life as well. Now, earth pit covers and manhole covers are a big part of our product portfolio.
