Heritage

Hitech Elastomers Ltd., incorporated in 1992 by its visionary founder Shri Vinod Ambalal Soni, has been a pioneering force in the marine and offshore industry. Shri Vinod Soni’s vision of indigenization and self-reliance aligned with the “Make in India” initiative promoted by the current Prime Minister’s vision. With the aim of eliminating foreign dependency and establishing a state-of-the-art manufacturing and testing facility for rubber and steel products used in marine and offshore operations, he started Hitech elastomers with a very humble beginning.

In the late 1980s, Shri Vinod Soni was faced with the challenging task of developing pneumatic/solid fenders in India, as the country was dependent on foreign vendors at that time. However, with his polymer and engineering expertise, he became the first Indian to pioneer rubber fenders that were fully made in India and of the same, if not better, quality as those available in the global market. This marked a significant milestone in the establishment of Hitech Elastomers in 1992, with a primary focus on providing high-performance and world-class quality rubber fenders and offshore installation and protection aids not only to India but also to the rest of the world.

Under the leadership of Shri Vinod Soni, Hitech Elastomers flourished and soon became one of the largest players in the global rubber fenders market. In 1990, Shri Rupen Vinod Soni, the current Chairman, and CEO joined his father in the pursuit of making Hitech Elastomers a world leader in the marine and offshore segment, furthering Shri Vinod Soni’s visionary dream.

The founders’ unwavering commitment to indigenization, high-quality products, and passion for the industry has been the driving force behind Hitech Elastomers’ success. The company’s remarkable journey is a testament to the potential and capabilities of Indian companies in contributing to the growth of this sector and making a mark in the global market.
