FAAB INDUSTRIES

What FAAB INDUSTRIES does

FAAB INDUSTRIES is a Mumbai, India-based fabricator of fluoropolymer-lined piping systems engineered for corrosive and high-purity service. The company lines carbon steel pipe, fittings, and vessels with PTFE, PFA, FEP and PVDF using an isostatic molding process, and supplies engineered spools for chemical, petrochemical, refinery, pharmaceutical, and food-processing plants. Its named customer base includes large Indian process operators such as Aarti Industries, Indian Oil, ONGC, the Aditya Birla Group, and TCI Sanmar, indicating positioning as a qualified vendor to PSU oil & gas and large private chemical groups rather than a commodity pipe trader.

Beyond lined piping, FAAB has extended its scope into machine building for lined-piping fabrication equipment and polymer coating services, internalising tooling capacity and adding a service/aftermarket revenue stream. The company holds technical partnerships with fluoropolymer principals DuPont and GFL for raw-material access, and has opened a regional office in Sharjah, UAE, to serve export customers across the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and North America. Reported headcount is approximately 9 employees and no external funding is disclosed, implying a bootstrapped, founder-led operating model.

Revenue mechanics are project-based B2B industrial: FAAB bids on engineering-procurement-construction tenders and direct plant orders, with pricing tied to liner material grade, diameter, pressure class, and testing regime (hydrostatic, spark-test, helium leak detection). The Sharjah office and the addition of coating services point to an attempted shift from pure project fabrication toward a mix of project work plus recurring service and export revenue, though the small headcount constrains how rapidly that mix can scale without external capital.
