What we make

What we manufacture and deliver.

Any one of these can be contracted on its own, or the whole interior delivered under a single award against one drawing set and one schedule. Everything listed is manufactured, supplied and installed by us — not sub-let after award.

  • Containers & Structural Frames

    ISO container conversions and welded steel frames for shelters and test facilities.

    • Container structures — 20 ft and 40 ft ISO containers modified for shelters, command posts and storage.
    • Structural frames — welded steel frames for shelters, test facilities and mounting systems.
  • Panels, Chassis & Vehicle Parts

    Composite and metal panel systems, chassis and vehicle subsystems.

    • Chassis and vehicle parts — vehicle chassis, structural components and subsystems.
    • Panel systems — lightweight composite and metal panels for shelters and enclosures.
  • Mounting, Tanks & Access

    Brackets and racks, tanks to military specification, heavy-duty doors and ramps.

    • Mounting systems — custom brackets, racks and mounting hardware for equipment integration.
    • Tanks and vessels — water, fuel and specialty tanks to military specification.
    • Hinged doors and access — heavy-duty doors, ramps and access systems with safety features.
  • Supports, Enclosures & Interiors

    Antenna towers and racks, fabricated cabinets, and personnel-shelter interiors.

    • Support structures — antenna towers, solar panel racks and structural supports.
    • Electrical enclosures — fabricated control cabinets and distribution panels.
    • Interior furnishings — modular seating, racks and bunk systems for personnel shelters.

Standards & compliance

Built to the standards this work is inspected against.

Wording here is deliberate: we design and manufacture to these criteria.

  • Quality ISO 9001:2015 — quality management system.
  • Environmental ISO 14001:2015 — environmental management system.
  • Safety ISO 45001:2018 — occupational health and safety management.
  • Pressure equipment ASME Section VIII — pressure vessel design and fabrication.
  • Welding AWS D1.1 — structural welding code.
  • Inspection MIL-STD-1916 — sampling tables for inspection by attributes.
  • Surface finish ISO 4287 — surface finish and roughness parameters.
  • Materials IS 2062 weldable structural steel, IS 1964 container specifications.
  • Certification the standards above are the design and build basis for these units. Third-party test certification is agreed and confirmed per contract before supply — ask us for the current position on any standard you intend to specify, and you will get a straight answer rather than a brochure claim.

Why Finex

Why departments place this work with us.

  • 01

    Built in our own plants

    More than 1,00,000 sq. ft. across two units near Nashik. The container modification, the structural welding, the fit-out and the finishing stay under our control instead of being sub-let after award.

  • 02

    Standard logistics platforms

    Built on ISO container platforms, so a unit moves on the truck, rail and airlift chains a force already operates — no special handling equipment to procure alongside it.

  • 03

    One contract to handover

    Structure, shielding, power, climate control and interior fit-out on a single order, with one schedule and one name on the handover certificate.

  • 04

    Straight answers on compliance

    We will tell you what is certified, what is built to a standard and what still needs testing, before you specify it. An awkward conversation early is cheaper than a rejected inspection.

FAQ

Questions we get on this scope.

If yours is not here, ask — we would rather answer it properly.

To ±0.01 mm on precision components through multi-axis CNC milling and turning, verified on coordinate measuring machines. Laser-cut edges hold under 0.5 mm deviation. Precision-critical features are CMM-inspected as a matter of course, not on request.

Critical weld joints are inspected radiographically and ultrasonically. Beyond that: first-article inspection on all new designs, in-process checks with statistical process control, material certificates of conformance, and full traceability from raw material to finished product. Every component ships with its documentation package.

Steel, aluminium, titanium and specialty alloys, including mild steel to IS 2062 Grade B for general structural work and high-strength low-alloy steel where strength-to-weight matters on mobile systems. Composite panel fabrication and bonding is available alongside the metalwork.

Yes — that is how these works are set up. Cutting, forming, welding, machining, assembly, heat treatment and surface finishing all happen in-house, so nothing waits on an outside vendor between stages and the quality record stays in one place.

Our plants are at Gut No. 243/1B, Pimpalnare, Dindori, Nashik, Maharashtra – 422004. We build there and deliver pan-India.
