Hayleys Aventura

What Hayleys Aventura does

Hayleys Aventura (Private) Limited is a Sri Lanka-based diversified industrial solutions provider and wholly-owned subsidiary of Hayleys PLC, one of Sri Lanka's largest conglomerates. The company operates through five strategic business units: Engineering Solutions (industrial generators including the own-brand Tempest line, pumps, motors and drives, lifts and car parking systems, storage and material handling equipment, and precision weighing); Lifesciences (medical and analytical equipment through subsidiary Hayleys Lifesciences Ltd, established 2008); Raw Materials (industrial chemicals, plastics, rubber, food and beverage ingredients, polyurethane, and construction chemicals); Haycolour (own-manufactured pigment emulsions for textile, rubber and ink industries, exported regionally); and Renewable Energy (six operational micro-hydroelectric plants totaling ~10.5 MW supplying the national grid).

The company's technology base is rooted in industrial engineering rather than software: it assembles Tempest generators using Perkins, Cummins, MTU and Volvo engines with Stamford and Mecc-Alte alternators (range 3.5 kVA to 4.2 MW), operates a pigment emulsion manufacturing facility at Kalutara with over 60MT per month capacity, and runs Pelton, Francis, and Vertical Kaplan turbines across its hydropower portfolio. Distribution is anchored by exclusive Sri Lankan dealerships for international brands including Hyster, Volvo Penta, Grundfos, Avery Weigh-Tronix, STOW, Invertek, ABB, and TMEIC, supplemented by partnerships with Goodpack, HeiQ, Eco-Logic, and Suzhou Asia Fuji.

The business model is multi-stream B2B revenue: one-time equipment sales (engineering solutions, raw materials distribution, pigment exports), recurring service contracts (24-hour after-sales support across 9 regional centers and a Malabe workshop serving 2,500+ generators), and asset-based recurring revenue (hydropower generation and equipment rental). Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales combined with authorized dealer networks, serving large conglomerates, SMEs, and industrial clients across Sri Lanka with selective regional reach into Bangladesh, Pakistan, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand. Disclosed turnover is Rs. 2.9 billion (~$21.7 million USD) with Rs. 769 million (~$5.7 million USD) profit before tax.
