Gayatri Rubbers and Chemicals Limited has secured new orders worth over Rs 10.5 million from Indian Railways and Defrail Technologies Limited, marking a significant step in its contribution to India’s expanding rail and transport infrastructure. The contracts, to be fulfilled within 60 days, reflect growing confidence in domestic manufacturing for critical components.

The larger order, valued at Rs 6.5 million, was placed by Defrail Technologies Limited for EPDM Rubber Gaskets and Neoprene Sponge Rubber Gaskets. Simultaneously, Indian Railways awarded a contract worth Rs 4 million for similar specialised rubber products. These components are essential for sealing, reducing vibrations, and ensuring the safe and efficient functioning of railway stock and infrastructure.

Gayatri Rubbers and Chemicals Limited (GRCL), formerly Goyal Rubbers, has emerged as a key manufacturer in the rubber sector, supplying rubber profiles, automobile profiles, and compounds. The company sources natural and EPDM rubber from Kerala, with other raw materials procured from Gujarat and Delhi NCR, ensuring quality and supply stability.

These orders reinforce GRCL’s role as an indigenous supplier advancing the ‘Make in India’ mission. Its durable gaskets contribute to safer, more efficient train operations and lower maintenance, thereby supporting low-emission transport solutions.

As India modernises its transport networks, demand for high-grade, locally produced components is expected to grow.

GRCL’s continued partnerships with major clients like Indian Railways position it favourably within India’s evolving industrial and infrastructure landscape, underscoring the link between resilient manufacturing and sustainable urban development.
