What Hiltex Industrial Fabrics - India does

Hiltex Industrial Fabrics Pvt. Ltd. is a family-owned composite textile mill headquartered in Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, India, with manufacturing operations at a 40,000 square yard facility in Unnao (60% covered production area, 40% green space). Established circa 1989-1990, the company operates vertically integrated spinning, weaving, processing, coating, and laminating capabilities on equipment including NuovoPignone rapier looms, RUTC looms, waterjet and airjet looms, thermosol dyeing jiggers, stenters, HTHP dyeing machines, rotary printing, knife coating, and film laminating lines. It employs over 300 skilled workers and exports to 28+ countries.

The company manufactures specialty industrial fabrics across ten product categories: tent fabrics, tarpaulins, parachute fabrics (supply dropping, man dropping, brake parachutes), military and uniform fabrics (camouflage ripstop, NBC, FR combat uniforms, high-altitude wear), marine and awning fabrics, equestrian fabrics, cotton canvas (numbered ducks, army ducks, single filled ducks), waxed fabrics for jackets and country wear, bags/military pouches/luggage fabrics, and cut-and-stitch finished goods. Its defense-segment specialty includes NBC clothing fabrics and high-altitude military fabrics, and it holds approved-supplier status with Indian Ministry of Defence stitching factories. An on-site testing laboratory performs tensile, tear, waterhead, FR, and UV testing to ASTM, EN, and ISO standards.

Hiltex operates a direct B2B sales model targeting defense contractors, military procurement agencies, tent manufacturers, and industrial fabric buyers internationally. Pricing is quote-based, determined by fabric specifications, coatings, and order volume, with multi-year contract cadences for defense customers. Custom fabric development is a core service, with the technical team working from initial brief through approved production sample, reportedly moving new fibre blends from concept to woven grey fabric within weeks. Revenue streams include one-time industrial fabric sales, custom fabric development services, and cut-and-stitch finished goods. The company is privately held by the Bhartiya family, with Rajiv Bhartiya as Managing Director, Yash Bhartiya as Director (Technical), and Sakshi Bhartiya as Director (Marketing). It holds ISO certification (specific standard not disclosed) and is investing in next-generation coating systems (TPO, bio-based PU, low-VOC formulations) and recycled fibre trials.
