Everest Industries’ expertise in the ARCHITECTURE and ENGINEERING behind PRAGATI INFRA’S expansion

Pragati Infra, a leading name in industrial manufacturing, recently entrusted Everest Industries with the task of expanding its facilities in Palwal, Haryana, to enhance its production capacity. The project involved the construction of three distinct buildings, each designed to meet the evolving operational needs of the company. In this case study, we will explore the architectural, structural, and sustainable features of the facility, highlighting the innovative engineering solutions, tonnage, and area specifications that make this industrial complex a standout in modern construction.

Overview of the project

The Pragati Infra Palwal expansion project consists of three buildings, each designed for specific operational purposes but unified by cutting-edge engineering solutions provided by Everest Industries. The total tonnage of the entire facility is 1,000 metric tons (MT), and each building incorporates modern amenities, optimized workspaces, and sustainable features, all tailored to meet the company’s growing needs.

Building specifications

Block A2: Block A2 is the largest structure in the complex, standing as a prime example of modern industrial architecture. With a tonnage of 495 MT and a plinth area of 11,580 square meters, this building is designed to handle high operational capacity while maintaining energy efficiency and worker comfort.

Daylight polycarbonate: 647 sqm of daylight polycarbonate panels integrated into the roof help flood the space with natural light, reducing reliance on artificial lighting
and improving the overall working environment.

Insulation: The roof features 4mm thick air bubble insulation, covering 11,700 sqm. This insulation helps regulate internal temperatures, preventing heat loss in winter and maintaining a cool internal climate during the hot summer months.

Louvers: 278 sqm of louvers are strategically placed to promote effective ventilation and improve air quality within the building.

Mezzanine area: A 590 sqm mezzanine level enhances the building’s storage and operational capabilities without expanding its overall footprint.

Block A1 – Part 1

Block A1 is divided into two sections, each designed for specific functions within the industrial complex. Part 1 of Block A1 has a tonnage of 220 MT and a plinth area of 3,980 sqm.

Daylight polycarbonate: 300 sqm of polycarbonate panels allow for ample natural lighting, reducing the need for artificial lighting and promoting energy efficiency.

Insulation: The roof is insulated with 4mm thick air bubble material covering 4,203 sqm, ensuring consistent thermal performance year-round.

Louvers: 255 sqm of louvers are integrated to enhance ventilation, ensuring optimal air circulation and comfort.

Mezzanine area: A 340 sqm mezzanine provides additional space for operational needs, storage, or future expansion.

Block A1 – Part 2

Part 2 of Block A1 is the larger of the two sections, with a tonnage of 285 MT and a plinth area of 5,800 sqm.

Daylight polycarbonate: This section boasts 435 sqm of polycarbonate panels, allowing natural light to permeate the interior and reduce energy consumption.

Insulation: The roof is insulated with 4mm thick air bubble material covering 6,067 sqm, ensuring efficient temperature regulation.

Louvers: 337 sqm of louvers are integrated to optimize air circulation and reduce the need for mechanical cooling systems.

Mezzanine area: The 481 sqm mezzanine in this section offers additional space for storage or operational purposes, providing room for future growth.

Sustainable features and efficiency

Sustainability was a key priority throughout the design and construction of the facility. The strategic use of daylight polycarbonate panels across all buildings minimizes reliance on artificial lighting, reducing energy consumption while improving the internal environment for workers.

The air bubble insulation used in the roofing system significantly enhances the energy efficiency of the facility by ensuring optimal internal temperatures throughout the year. This reduces the load on HVAC systems, resulting in lower energy costs and a more environmentally friendly operation.

In addition, the buildings feature louvers that facilitate natural ventilation, which not only reduces the need for mechanical cooling but also improves indoor air quality—crucial for worker health and productivity.

Futureproofing through mezzanine spaces

Each block includes a mezzanine area, ranging in size from 340 sqm to 590 sqm, offering flexible space for future storage, operations, or equipment. These mezzanine levels help future-proof the facility, allowing it to adapt to Pragati Infra’s expanding needs as the company grows.

Conclusion

The Pragati Infra expansion project in Palwal, built by Everest Industries, stands as a stellar example of modern industrial construction that combines sustainability, energy efficiency, and functional design. Through innovative solutions like daylight polycarbonate panels, air bubble insulation, louvers, and mezzanine spaces, Everest Industries has created a facility that meets Pragati Infra’s current operational needs while ensuring long-term adaptability for future growth.

This project not only supports Pragati Infra’s expanding operations but also sets a new benchmark for industrial construction in the region, demonstrating Everest Industries’ expertise in delivering high-performance, sustainable industrial facilities.
