Paras Engineering Works is an IBR approved pipe fittings and flanges manufacturer in India, approved under the Indian Boiler Regulations by the Directorate of Steam Boilers, Government of Maharashtra.
Why IBR approval matters for steam and boiler lines
Pipe fittings and flanges in steam and feed-water lines covered by the Indian Boiler Regulations must come from an IBR approved manufacturer and carry the IBR certificate for the job. Paras holds IBR approval from the Directorate of Steam Boilers, Government of Maharashtra, and IBR is also on the Paras third-party inspection register, so IBR inspection can be arranged on an order alongside agencies such as Bureau Veritas, SGS, Lloyd's Register and TÜV.
