Why Durel International

Your Complete Plastic Welding Solutions Partner 

In India's rapidly evolving plastic fabrication industry, finding the right equipment supplier is just the beginning. The real challenge is finding a partner who understands your complete fabrication ecosystem, provides expert guidance, and stands behind you with comprehensive service support. This is where Durel International stands apart. 

Filling a Critical Gap in India's Plastic Welding Industry 

The Indian plastic welding equipment market has long been fragmented. Many suppliers specialize in narrow product categories—some focus exclusively on welding machines, others on extruders, and still others on specific tooling or accessories. 

This fragmentation creates a significant problem for fabricators: no single partner with holistic understanding of the entire plastic welding and fabrication process. When you're building a complete fabrication capability, working with multiple vendors who don't understand how their equipment integrates with the rest of your workflow creates inefficiency, communication gaps, and suboptimal results 


Durel International was founded to solve exactly this problem. 

Our approach is fundamentally different. We don't just sell plastic welding machines—we provide complete fabrication solutions that address every aspect of plastic processing and assembly. 

The Holistic Approach to Plastic Fabrication 

Consider what's actually involved in professional plastic fabrication beyond welding equipment itself: 

You need high-quality sub-assembly components precision-cut from plastic sheets. You need the right material selection for specific applications. You need testing equipment to verify quality. You need operator training. You need service support when equipment needs maintenance. 

This is why one of Durel's first product offerings was the CNC router—equipment that fabricates precision sub-assembly components from plastic sheet material. This wasn't a random product addition. It reflected our understanding that complete plastic fabrication solutions require more than just welding equipment. 

Leadership Built on 25 Years of Industry Expertise 

Durel International is led by Managing Partner Mr. D. Arunkumar, who brings 25 years of hands-on experience in plastic welding technology and fabrication solutions. 

Mr. Arunkumar is a well-recognized figure in India's plastic welding industry, known for championing the transition from metal to plastic fabrication across diverse sectors. This isn't theoretical knowledge—it's decades of practical experience understanding what works in Indian industrial conditions, what challenges fabricators face, and how to solve real-world production problems. 

This depth of expertise permeates everything Durel does, from equipment recommendations to application engineering to service support. 

National Presence with Local Support 

Understanding that responsive service is critical for production equipment, Durel has established a nationwide presence with strategically located offices across India. 

Head Office: Chennai, Tamil Nadu
Branch Offices: Mumbai, Delhi, Ahmedabad, and Bhopal 

This geographic coverage ensures that wherever your fabrication operations are located in India, Durel's technical expertise and service support are accessible. Local presence means faster response times, better understanding of regional requirements, and the ability to provide hands-on support when you need it. 

Why Choose Durel Over Competitors or Direct Import? 

The fundamental question every fabricator faces: should I work with a local partner like Durel, deal with multiple specialized vendors, or attempt to import equipment directly from international manufacturers? 

The Durel Value Proposition 

Durel is built on the belief that adding value to customers goes beyond selling equipment. 

While the brands we represent are among the best in the world, our real value lies in the expertise we bring to your business. We constantly think about what you actually need—not just what equipment to buy, but how to improve quality, increase productivity, and enhance overall profitability. 

This consultative approach means we sometimes recommend solutions different from what clients initially request—because we understand that the right solution isn't always the obvious one. 

Expert Application Engineering 

When you contact Durel with a fabrication requirement, you're not talking to a sales representative reading from a catalog. You're engaging with technical experts who understand: 

  • Material science and plastic welding compatibility 

  • Production workflow optimization 

  • Quality control requirements for different applications 

  • Equipment integration and complementary tooling 

  • Cost-of-ownership calculations beyond initial purchase price 

This expertise helps you avoid expensive mistakes and ensures your equipment investment delivers the results your business requires. 

Complete Ecosystem from World-Class Brands 

Durel represents top-tier brands within their respective product categories, carefully selected to provide customers with a complete ecosystem for plastic welding and fabrication. 

Our Brand Portfolio Includes: 

  • Ritmo: Premier butt fusion, electrofusion, extrusion, and socket fusion welding equipment 

  • Buckleys: Industry-leading spark testers and holiday detectors for coating inspection 

  • Paneltim: High-quality plastic panel systems 

  • HSGM: Professional heat cutters and thermal processing equipment 

  • Duss: Reliable welding equipment and industrial tools 

  • Durel: Our own branded hot air guns, testing equipment, and fabrication tools 

  • Geo Tools: Specialized geomembrane installation equipment 

  • FPZ: Industrial side channel blowers for various applications 

This isn't a random collection of brands. Each partnership was chosen because these manufacturers represent the best technology in their category, and together they provide everything fabricators need for complete plastic welding and processing solutions. 

The Advantage of Working with Globally Renowned Brands 

There's a strategic reason Durel partners with established international brands rather than focusing on low-cost alternatives. 

When you use globally recognized equipment brands in your fabrication, you bring credibility to your own business. Your clients recognize quality equipment, understand that you're serious about production capability, and trust that your fabrication will meet professional standards. 

This credibility advantage often translates directly into winning better projects and commanding premium pricing for your services. 

Service Philosophy: Partnership Over Transactions 

Many equipment suppliers focus on the sale and disappear after delivery. Durel's approach is fundamentally different—we view equipment sales as the beginning of a long-term partnership. 

Our Service Commitments 

Rapid Response Times: When production equipment fails, every hour of downtime costs money. We understand urgency and prioritize getting you back into production quickly. 

Technical Expertise: Our service team doesn't just replace parts—they understand how equipment should perform and can diagnose problems accurately. 

Comprehensive Training: We ensure your operators know how to use equipment properly, maintain it correctly, and achieve optimal results. 

Local Spare Parts Inventory: Critical components are stocked at our service centers, eliminating long waits for international shipping. 

Preventive Maintenance Support: We help you implement maintenance schedules that prevent problems rather than just reacting to failures. 

This service philosophy recognizes that equipment is only valuable when it's running properly and producing quality results. 

Milestone Achievement: Complete Fabrication Solutions 

One of Durel's significant achievements demonstrates our complete-solution capability: supplying an entire fabrication facility with everything needed for professional plastic fabrication and welding operations. 

This comprehensive project included: 

  • Sheet welding equipment for large-format plastic fabrication 

  • CNC router for precision component cutting 

  • Extrusion welders for specialized welding applications

Durel's role in this transformation is providing Indian fabricators with world-class equipment, expert guidance, and the support needed to deliver internationally competitive quality. When Indian fabricators succeed globally, Durel succeeds—we're aligned with our customers' ambitions. 

Beyond Equipment: A Complete Fabrication Partner 

What truly differentiates Durel is our holistic understanding of what fabricators actually need to succeed. 

You don't need just a welding machine—you need equipment that integrates with your workflow, operators who know how to use it properly, service support when problems arise, and expert guidance when you're tackling new applications or materials. 

You don't need a vendor—you need a partner who understands your business challenges and is invested in your success. 

The Durel Difference in Practice 

When you work with Durel, you experience: 

Application Engineering: Solutions designed for your specific requirements, not generic product recommendations. 

Equipment Integration: Ensuring all your fabrication equipment works together efficiently rather than creating workflow bottlenecks. 

Operator Development: Training programs that build capability within your team, not just basic equipment operation. 

Quality Assurance Support: Guidance on testing, inspection, and quality control appropriate for your applications. 

Long-Term Partnership: Ongoing technical support as your business grows and your requirements evolve. 

Making the Right Partner Choice 

Choosing an equipment supplier is really choosing a long-term business partner. The decision impacts your production capability, product quality, operational efficiency, and ultimately your competitive position in the market. 

Working with multiple fragmented vendors means coordinating different support teams, managing incompatible equipment recommendations, and solving integration problems yourself. 

Attempting direct imports saves initial costs but leaves you without local expertise, rapid service response, or anyone to call when application questions arise. 

The Durel approach provides complete solutions backed by deep expertise and comprehensive support—everything needed for plastic fabrication success under one partnership.
