How We Work

Design & Build — Two Ways

We work with clients at every stage — from those with fully detailed drawings ready to go, to those who need us to take a requirement from concept through to completed fabrication. Both approaches are fully supported by our in-house team.

Option 01 · In-House Design & Build
We Design It for You

Bring us your requirement — application, capacity, material, and site constraints — and our in-house engineering team takes it from concept through drawings to finished fabrication. One team, one point of accountability.

  • Engineering drawings produced entirely in-house
  • Material selection and grade advice included
  • Client approval on drawings before fabrication begins
  • Design optimised for fabrication efficiency and cost
  • Full documentation and material certification at handover
Option 02 · Client Drawing · We Fabricate
You Provide the Drawing

Have your own engineering drawings or OEM specifications? We fabricate precisely to your documents — no deviations without written approval. Trusted by EPC contractors, consultants, and industrial clients who need fabrication accuracy they can rely on.

  • Any format accepted — CAD, PDF, or paper
  • Drawing review for fabricability before production starts
  • Dimensional verification at each production stage
  • Material certification records maintained throughout
  • Third-party inspection accommodated on request
Materials

MS & SS — Heavy Industrial Grades

We specialise in heavy-gauge fabrication in mild steel and stainless steel across a range of grades and thicknesses — from structural sections and plate work to precision-welded process equipment.

Mild Steel · MS
Mild Steel Fabrication

The backbone of heavy industrial fabrication. MS offers excellent weldability, structural strength, and cost-effectiveness across a broad range of plate thicknesses, sections, pipes, and formed components — for structural frameworks, storage tanks, chimneys, equipment skids, machine bases, industrial sheds, and any general heavy fabrication requirement.

Structural plates & sections Pipes & fittings Rolled & press-formed Heavy gauge
Stainless Steel · SS
Stainless Steel Fabrication

For applications requiring corrosion resistance, hygiene, or high-temperature performance. We fabricate in SS 304, SS 316, and SS 316L — used extensively in food processing, pharmaceutical, chemical, and process environments where material integrity and surface cleanability matter. Precision TIG and MIG welding, with internal surfaces finished to specification.

Production Process

From Drawing to Delivery

Every job follows a structured process — from drawing review through fabrication to on-site erection. Quality is checked at each stage before moving forward.

01
Review & Design

Client drawings are reviewed for fabrication feasibility before production starts. For design-and-build projects, our team develops drawings from your brief. Material specifications are confirmed and drawings approved before fabrication begins.

02
Material Procurement

Plates, sections, pipes, and fittings are sourced from reputable suppliers. Material certificates are maintained and tracked through production for full traceability from raw material to finished component.

03
Cutting, Rolling & Forming

Laser cutting, plate rolling, press braking, and forming carried out on our production equipment. Dimensions verified at this stage — correct cuts are the foundation of accurate assembly.

04
Welding & Assembly

Qualified welders using appropriate procedures for the material and joint — MIG, TIG, and SMAW as applicable. Inter-stage dimensional checks are carried out throughout assembly.

05
Inspection, Finish & Dispatch

Dimensional verification against drawings. Surface finishing applied as required. Components packaged and dispatched, or our erection crew mobilises for on-site installation of structures, platforms, and sheds.

📋
Quality at Every Stage

Dimensional checks at cutting, assembly, and final inspection. Nothing proceeds to the next stage until the previous one is verified.

📄
Documentation

Material certificates, inspection records, and test documentation provided as required by the project scope and client requirements.

🏗️
On-Site Erection

Structures, sheds, platforms, and chimneys installed on site by our own crew under full safety supervision.

Why Thermal Engineers

Engineering Experience
That Shows in the Work

Fabrication quality comes from understanding what the finished product needs to do in service — not just from having machines and welders.

Heavy industrial fabrication in mild steel and stainless steel — designed in-house or built to your drawings. From tanks and platforms to industrial sheds, we fabricate and erect on site.

01
Process Engineering Background

40+ years of designing and building boilers, heat exchangers, pressure vessels, and thermal systems. Our fabricators understand how equipment functions in service — not just how to weld steel. We spot issues in drawings, advise on material grades, and build components that perform as intended.

02
In-House Design Team

From basic fabrication drawings to complex structural design — all done in-house. Faster turnaround, tighter coordination between design and production, and a single accountable team from first drawing to finished product. No need for a separate consultant.

03
Fabricate & Erect — Full Scope

We don't just hand over at the gate. For structures, sheds, platforms, and chimneys, our team handles transportation and on-site erection. Full responsibility for the installed work — no gaps between fabrication and what's actually standing on site.

04
Kerala-Based, Nationally Active

Our fabrication facility is in Kerala. We serve clients across Kerala and South India, with national project capability for the right scope. Accessible engineering teams, fast site response, and no inflated logistics costs on routine work.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked

Yes — we fabricate to client-supplied drawings regularly. Any format accepted: DWG, DXF, PDF, or paper. We review drawings for fabrication issues before production starts and fabricate strictly to approved documents, with no deviations or material substitutions without written approval.
Yes. Our in-house engineering team takes your requirement — application, capacity, material, and constraints — and produces drawings for your review before fabrication begins. A common path for clients who want a complete solution without sourcing a separate consultant.
We work in mild steel (MS) and stainless steel (SS 304, SS 316, SS 316L) for heavy industrial fabrication — structural sections, plate work, pipes, and formed components. We do not undertake GI fabrication or light sheet metal work.
Yes. For sheds, platforms, chimneys, and large structures, we handle transportation and on-site erection with our own crew. Full responsibility for the installed work — not just the fabricated components.
Process and chemical plants, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, power generation, waste and water treatment, cement and mining, and general manufacturing. We also make our own KOALA boilers and incinerators, so our process engineering experience directly informs our fabrication quality.
