Shreeji Ceramic prides itself on its environmental awareness since 1999


More and more customers expect businesses to share their environmental values and be aware of carbon emissions. State and federal legislation adds another reasons to consider your business' environmental impact.

Environment means a lot to Shreeji Ceramic, in the intellect of both human being and natural scenery. Shreeji Ceramic has become a supporter of eco-friendly manufacturing process with the key ideas like full utilization of raw-material, recycling of waste water and use of cleanest fossil fuel, Natural Gas. Natural gas is inherently efficient and abundant throughout the globe, providing clean energy. When it burned, PNG (Piped Natural Gas) produces about ~45 percent less carbon dioxide than coal and almost no carbon monoxide, sulphur dioxide, dissolved solids or airborne particulates, all of which can be  harmful to human and animal health.


At the same time, steady supply of piped natural gas by Gujarat state and oxygen enrichment process by INOX Air-products for our plants are something we feel good about today and tomorrow. Recently Gujarat State high court has issued notice against pollution caused by ceramic and silicate industrial units still use the coal based gas. As per notice, more than 70% of ceramic units are ordered to either shut their plants or commence using cleanest fossil fuel.

Despite using cleaner production process, Shreeji Ceramic has never compromise its "We and Nature" policy even at higher production cost due to increase in PNG prices. We at Shreeji Ceramic are committed to deliver quality products to our customers with care of environment, and that's what inspire us to "Green Company Green Earth".

Shreeji Ceramic Sons Celebrating Father's Day

 
 

Today, India and many other parts of the world will celebrate Father’s Day. Observed on the third Sunday of June every year, Father’s Day is the perfect summer celebration for outdoor festivities and family gatherings in honour of our father’s, grandfather’s and paternal figures in our lives.

Shreeji Ceramic, India's leading tiles manufacturer, in continuation with its efforts to bring smiles to people in our own special way. Today, let's celebrate the fathers in your life! Come make a special treat to your father.

We own a family business run by a team of father, uncles, sons and cousins. It might not be easier to run a business with family members but when family businesses work, they possess an inborn competitive edge, no other company can match. When family businesses are best, they align values, vision, strategy, investment and governance to make both family and business activities more professional and mutually supportive. Shreeji Ceramic is the best family businesses turn that understanding into an efficiency that breeds speedier management.

"We have telepathic relationship. We don't waste time. We're absolutely faster." says Haribhai Patel, founder, owner and a head of Shreeji Ceramic group. Whether working with a sibling or a parent or an uncle, we know what inspires, what threatens, what extracts compromise.

We, Shreeji Ceramic Sons are fortunate enough to have support of our father in our life and to guide us and teach us every best thing in the business to give us level best.

 
Pratik Patel, Business Developer and Social-media executive for Shreeji Ceramic since 2010. He says "I never thought of myself running a business not even in my dreams so far but my family is with me and they made me a successful businessman. I have always been proud of my dad and uncle and now I am proud of myself too. I am the youngest entrepreneur in my family business that means a lot to me."

Pravin Patel and Ravi Patel (two young brothers and head of production department) discuss their experience about working with their father and uncle that "We can get things done in shorthand. The family-business structure can be amazingly quick footed. We are thankful to these supportive family around to teach us, correct us and encourage us."

"My father has been my inspiration throughout my life and still I have to learn more and more from him as I have been doing so. I see myself standing next to him and taking all the responsibilities from his shoulder but there are miles to go before I reach." says Jignesh Patel, director cum Chief of Global Market and son of Mr. Haribhai Patel.

Rajesh Patel, director and Marketing Manager would like to share his experience "I would like to thank my family to pick me up and guide me up to walk into the family business. I am fortunate enough to be a part of Shreeji Ceramic, a family running business which always teach me every best thing in the business to deliver my level best."

"I have grown watching them doing their work with ease n enthusiasm. I wondered how they do that but when I entered into the family business they taught me every little thing about business. I am very grateful to my father and my cousins." words from Kalpesh Patel, in charge of Marketing and Accounting Management.

In last, we, Shreeji Ceramic Sons are very blessed and grateful to have such love and guidance from our fathers who have always been with us, supported us and guided us and we are ready to learn more and more each day.

Happy Father's day.

“We recycle everything.” says Head of Shreeji Ceramic

Ceramic manufacturers and their suppliers have been busy rolling out ‘green’ products to meet the demands of consumers seeking products that are more environmentally friendly. But behind the scenes, these same companies are making significant changes to their manufacturing operations – in part to reduce their use of natural resources and to save money.
“We are implementing companywide green initiatives. We recycle everything.” says Haribhai Patel, head of Morbi based tiles maker Shreeji Ceramic. We operate nearly dozen production lines in four state-of-the-art manufacturing plants in Morbi (India) to manufacture a full range of ceramic and vitrified tiles.
In mid of 2012, the company started a new multi-charged vitrified tiles plant in Morbi. The facility incorporates several other green practices that will make their way into other Shreeji Ceramic plants. Our commitment to environmentally friendly efficiencies created a new culture within the company and fostered a new way of thinking about solving problems. While going green requires an upfront investment and a dedication from management, the rewards and benefits to the entire company are worth the effort.
Virtually every ceramic factory has some sort of scrap like slurry, burned-coal, cardboard, polishing tools, plastic, foam, boxes or other waste, most of which goes to recycler instead of landfill. If a ceramic producer doesn’t recycle, it’s likely missing out on some easy revenue and a means of keeping its plant tidy. Often, environmentally friendly efficiency efforts focus on energy conservation. Our one of wall tiles plant had been redesigned inside and out to preserve its character while applying completely new technologies in order to improve production efficiency and produce most recent products. The oldest plant in our group is also now under modification. It was redesigned completely in 2005 in order to achieve maximum manufacturing potential and lower manufacturing costs to deliver competitive prices.
By incorporating advanced technologies into the production lines, we are able to increase production, improve product quality, save energy and protect the environment. We believe that one of the most important factors of success for a business to employ, train and motivate top notch personnel and provide better working area for labour to work tirelessly and make our plants run at high capacity that meets our valuable customers continuous needs.
This 2013, we are increasing manufacturing capacity with the addition of two production kiln lines to target the rapidly growing demand of the high-definition digital wall tiles in various sizes.
Protecting people and the environment is our goal while manufacturing and delivering superior products to our clients.
We are improving our manufacturing plants and helping the planet because we are “Green Company Green Earth”.

New Year’s Message for 2013 from the Head of Shreeji Ceramic

 
 I am pleased to exchange my greetings on the beginning of a new year.
2012 was another exciting and challenging year for Shreeji Ceramic of being in the business and proudly ended another year on a beneficial note by overcoming all the hurdles. Due to the recent retail boom and new market trends in the ceramic sector, there is a lot of potential for Indian Ceramic industry to become the leading ceramic hub of the world.
It is indeed a proud moment for Shreeji Ceramic to retain its position as the India’s mounting ceramic manufacturer and undoubtedly, every Shreeji Ceramic employee, partner and client has played a major role towards the achievement of such a milestone which may have been unimaginable when we started production in 1999. I thank our clientele for their support and assurance to continue enhancing happiness from a group-wide outlook while remaining constantly aware that customers are the core of our business.
Many developments took place at Shreeji Ceramic during 2012. We focussed on developing new market segments and we were able to tap new markets by launching 800mm x 800m Multi-charged Vitrified Tiles & Ultra Pacific White Vitrified Tiles that has generated over-whelming response from our clients. We have recently launched Colorup Digital Printed Tiles Collection targeting India’s finest art seeking consumer segment that was not tapped earlier. Parking-proof Vitrified Tiles, which has achieved a remarkable credit. The key to our success is the ability to continuously develop innovative new range of products and anticipate the market requirements. So, we hope to continue with this success story in 2013.
It has become more difficult than ever to forecast the future due to the increasing competitiveness in our global business environment. To ensure that our company can overcome unforeseeable conditions and continue moving forward, we must accurately assess our environment, make sound decisions and then act quickly, which includes constantly prioritizing our activities and being creative. At the same time, we must speed up our operations by simplifying management structure, clarifying key challenges and communicating closely. As an organization, we have always believed in the importance of communication. The social media is a powerful medium of communication, so we have ensured that ours is up-to-date and informative. We shall continue to forge innovative technology-driven marketing tools to cater to the needs of our tech-savvy customers.
I earnestly believe that the year 2013 will be another challenging year and we are confident that we will be able to triumph over any hesitant barriers to ensure Shreeji Ceramic’s continued growth and progression of our brand development plans. I hope to see continued support from our clientele to ensure the year 2013 is scripted as another successful year in the magnificent chapters of Shreeji Ceramic’s history.
May I offer my best wishes to you, and to your family, for success, good health and happiness throughout the year 2013!
Yours Sincerely,
-
