Voith Paper Fabrics India Limited, originally incorporated as Porritts & Spencer (Asia) Limited in 1968, is a significant player in the manufacturing of specialty engineered fabrics. With its manufacturing unit in Faridabad, Haryana, the company specializes in producing various felts used in the paper, pulp, and cement industries. The company, a subsidiary of UK-based Porritts & Spencer, underwent a major transformation when Voith Bespannungstechnik GmbH from Germany acquired a controlling stake in 2000, positioning itself as a leader in paper technology.
The company, ISO 9001 certified by TUV Cert, Germany, offers diverse products, including 100% filter fabrics for dry filtration and geo-textiles for railway track applications. In 2008, the company rebranded to Voith Paper Fabrics India Limited, reflecting its alignment with Voith's global brand. Additionally, the company has expanded its market reach by appointing selling agents outside India, venturing into the technical textiles sector.
