Who we are
Kruger Industries is a partnership firm founded in 2004 in Peenya Industrial Area, Bengaluru, by Rajalingam and Ravi Govindan. Ravi Govindan has been Managing Partner since July 2026. Our first work was containers and covers for the Microtex Group’s industrial batteries, PPCP parts that must resist acid and hold their dimensions under load.
Kruger is the plastics company of the Microtex Group, an Indian industrial manufacturing group founded by Sri A. Govindan in 1969. Our sister company Microtex Energy Private Limited designs and builds industrial batteries. Kruger moulds every container and cover those batteries use. The two companies are distinct.
What Kruger moulds, on which machines, in which materials, to what size
Thermoplastic parts from 10 g to 5.2 kg: battery containers and covers, electrical enclosures and insert-moulded connector caps, glass-filled nylon fan blades, air-filter housings, polycarbonate coach louvers and exit signs. Thermoplastics only. Nothing above 5.2 kg or 1300 tonnes.
Nine injection moulding machines: eight horizontal machines at 60, 180, 200, 480, 650, 720, 850 and 1300 tonnes clamp force, and one vertical machine for insert moulding. Battery containers run on 480 to 850 tonnes, covers on 180 to 200 tonnes, insert-moulded connector caps on the vertical machine and the heaviest housings on the 1300 tonne machine.
| Machine | Clamp force | Type |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 60 tonnes | Horizontal |
| 2 | 180 tonnes | Horizontal |
| 3 | 200 tonnes | Horizontal |
| 4 | 480 tonnes | Horizontal |
| 5 | 650 tonnes | Horizontal |
| 6 | 720 tonnes | Horizontal |
| 7 | 850 tonnes | Horizontal |
| 8 | 1300 tonnes | Horizontal |
| 9 | Vertical machine | Insert moulding |
Materials: polypropylene and PP copolymer, 20% glass-filled polypropylene, polycarbonate, nylon 6 and 66 unfilled and 15% and 30% glass-filled, ABS, HDPE and PET. Engineering compounds are dried and processed to grade.
Before any steel is cut, our engineers run product design and CAE mould-flow analysis. Tooling is made by partner toolrooms under Kruger’s design authority and validated on our machines. Also: 3D-printed prototypes for fit checks, insert moulding, ultrasonic welding, pad and screen printing, sub-assembly and packing.

Which certificate and documents we can send today
ISO 9001:2015, certificate NVT 147210, issued by NVT Quality Certification International LLP, Bengaluru, valid to 14 March 2027. The scope is the design, manufacture, supply and sales of plastic injection moulded components, at a single site. The PDF is the button under the headline.
Material certificates for the grades we run, certificates of conformance, inspection reports and an NDA come with the offer. Incoming, in-process and final inspection are documented per part, with batch traceability where the customer requires it.
Terms, Incoterms and the lead-time promise
We quote FCA Chennai or FCA Nhava Sheva by default, DAP where costed, never DDP into the United States or the United Kingdom. First export orders run on letter of credit or advance payment; open account follows once an ECGC buyer limit is in place. New accounts are on 45 days or less.
Every new tool is funded by the customer or transferred in. It stays the customer’s property and is held at Kruger under bailment terms. NDA on request.
Production lead times are quoted per part in the offer. One promise is fixed: Madhusudhan, our Head of Production, returns DFM feedback on your drawing within 48 hours on working days. For battery containers and covers, where a size is already tooled, samples come from the existing mould; where it needs a new mould, we build it against your committed volume, with the mould owned by you or amortised in the piece price.
Who else trusts Kruger, by sector
Customer names appear only with written permission; sectors are named instead. A global filtration OEM has bought air-filter housings in 20% glass-filled polypropylene since 2010, shipped to six of its plants in India. A refrigeration manufacturer awarded Kruger two fan-blade families in 15% glass-filled nylon in 2025, now in volume production. A global connector manufacturer buys insert-moulded connector caps and terminations. Automation and device OEMs buy non-sterile ABS and polycarbonate enclosures, covers and panels for robotics and automation equipment. Coach integrators fit our polycarbonate window louvers and nylon door guides to railway coaches. Other battery makers buy 2V cell containers in BS and DIN sizes and 12V monobloc containers.
Abroad, over 35,000 horticulture pots and trays were moulded and shipped to Kuwait for Palms Agro Production Co., Kuwait. Our first United States order is in production: polycarbonate exit signs, printed, assembled and individually packed.
Proof
A global filtration OEM: 20 per cent glass-filled polypropylene air-filter housings, supplied continuously since 2010 to six of its plants in India. The name appears here once written permission is received.
