I. R. Tubes Pvt. Ltd. started in 1981 as a manufacturing unit to manufacture rubber extruded and Rubber moulded goods at Sanaswadi, near Pune. In 1991, when the Government of India liberalised the economy, I. R. Tubes Pvt Ltd. decided to diversify and set up a trading division. Even in trading, the company decided to stick to it’s core competency which was rubber compounding & rubber processing. They decided to only import stock and sell chemicals for the rubber industry and to source these products from high quality manufacturers.
