Wire & Cable India: Please share Sant Engineering Industries’ journey, and major milestones.
Charanjeev Malhotra: We are a renowned, leading manufacturer of wire and cable machinery. Our journey started around 60 years back, when Shri Krishan Lal Malhotra, Director of Sant Engineering Industries, founded the company with an ambition to serve the wire & cable industry. He was committed and dedicated to making Sant Engineering one of the leading choices for wire & cable machines. Mr. Charanjeev Malhotra’s leadership has played a significant role in the company’s growth. As we look to the future, the next generation, led by Mr. Jayant Malhotra, shows great promise and potential for continued growth.
We have been committed to growing ‘Sant’ as a brand. We have enriched ourselves with numerous memories of learning, achievements and success, crossing varied milestones. We believe in the theory of continuous learning, where we strive to learn and grow to serve the wire & cable industry in the best way possible. From the first machine which was supplied in 1958, we have grown consistently with our product range boasting of state-of-the-art insulation & sheathing lines to total extrusion solutions.
