APL Apollo receives design patents for 6 innovative products

The Office of the Controller General of Patents, Designs & Trademarks recently granted six registrations to the innovative products of APL Apollo Tubes Limited. With these fresh registrations, the overall portfolio for APL Apollo Tubes has risen to 16.

APL APOLLO is India’s leading structural steel tube manufacturer. Headquartered at Delhi NCR, the Company operates 10 manufacturing facilities with a total capacity of 2.6 million tons. This is an affirmation of APL Apollo’s innovative aspiration to create new market for structural steel tubes and redefine how infrastructure development is planned in India. These products will be used in various building material applications and would replace existing conventional construction products like wood, aluminum, concrete and steel angles and channels.

The structural steel tubes provide the ability to design with flexibility, without compromising on the durability and strength of the structure. In addition to this, construction with Tubular Steel Structures is faster with better seismic resistance and the resultant structure has higher carpet area, all at substantially lesser costs than conventional construction models, including RCC structures. Moreover, Tubular constructions are more sustainable and environment friendly, without any water or air pollution emanating due to the construction process, thus aligning well with the Ministry of Steel’s rallying call of #SteelForGreen.

The National Infrastructure Pipeline along with the recently announced National Monetisation Pipeline place us at the cusp of history where we reimagine infrastructure development for a self-reliant India, an Atmanirbhar Bharat with designs specifically catering to its rapid growth potential.
