Savitri Woods: Pioneers in the Plywood Industry
Founded in 2003 in Hoshiarpur, Savitri Woods has become a leader in the plywood industry through its commitment to technology and innovation. From its inception, the company has utilized automated machinery sourced globally, enabling it to become India’s largest plywood manufacturer and win the hearts of consumers nationwide.
World-Class Product
The founders of Savitri Woods highlight a stark difference between plywood manufacturing processes in India and other developed countries. While around 90% of plywood in India is produced using conventional methods dating back to the 18th century, approximately 90% of plywood worldwide is made using modern, state-of-the-art technology. Savitri Woods has embraced these advanced technologies and processes, setting a benchmark in the industry with their world-class products.
Import Substitute Products
India has seen a trend where quality-conscious buyers import plywood from countries like China, Russia, Europe, Myanmar, Malaysia, and Indonesia due to the lack of standardized quality plywood domestically. The plywood industry in India is dominated by unorganized and small-scale manufacturers. However, Savitri Woods is confident in meeting the expectations of sophisticated Indian customers. Their plants, equipped with advanced technology, produce plywood of international standards, living up to their brand theme, “WIGWAM – PLY AS IT SHOULD BE.”
