PAN Tex Nonwoven Pvt. Ltd. is the technical textile vertical manufacturing company of PAN Group, a family-run business conglomerate based out of Rajkot, Gujarat, India. For over four decades, PAN Group has built a strong foundation based on experience in various industries including cotton, cement, edible oil, cattle feed, agri commodities, health and hygiene, e-commerce and many others. PAN Tex, which started commercial production in September 2022, manufactures SSMMS hygiene and medical-grade nonwoven fabrics with the best among all German-designed technology and German components.

Mr. Nidhey Pan, the founder of PAN Tex Nonwoven, diversified in the nonwovens industry with the vision “to be the most compelling, trustworthy and best in class quality partner for supplying sustainable fabric for the global ecosystem, creating an environment which cares.” The company aims to provide high-quality spunbond and spunmelt nonwoven solutions to customers in India and abroad.

“Our technology provider is a world leader in the development of specialized equipment for the production of nonwoven fabric,” Pan says. “Our fabrics have the best tensile strength, tear-resistance and uniform consistency among nonwoven materials.”

With excellent production equipment, rich professional knowledge and experience, PAN aims for its mission and vision to be the reality. With the motto ‘Fabric for CARE’ PAN Tex makes extra soft, cotton-like, herbal and organically treated topsheets that are smooth and gentle to skin for the hygiene care segment. 

PAN Tex Nonwovens’ main areas of focus are the baby diaper, feminine hygiene and adult incontinence categories, which all expect growth globally. PAN Tex, with its best-in-class R&D team, has developed a certified natural, organic and herbal product mainly used for topsheets for baby and adult diapers and sanitary napkins. These products have been found to act as a medicinal agent to avoid any type of skin problems. Apart from hygiene, PAN Tex supplies nonwovens for agriculture, geotextile, filtration, home care and automotive applications.

Meanwhile, ESG (Environmental, Social & Governance) is a key priority for PAN Tex. Its plant design incorporates sustainable construction, green spaces and rainwater harvesting, along with a significant emphasis on renewable energy usage. On the production side, it is continually conducting research on biodegradable and compostable materials, herbal-treated nonwovens and down gauging. PAN Tex will also be operating with 100% renewable energy.  

Innovation and R&D remain a priority of PAN Tex Nonwoven. “We are receptive towards emerging trends and technological advancements in the nonwovens industry,” says Pan. “Our devotion towards continuous improvement, our commitment to the environment and its sustenance is the fuel of our innovation.”

Looking ahead, Pan has a positive outlook on the industry, especially in India. “India’s nonwovens industry is currently seeing great momentum,” he says. “In one of the most significant shifts in global demographics since records began, India overtook China during 2023 as the world’s most populous country, according to the United Nations (UN). The production of nonwovens and the consumption of products made from them—especially absorbent hygiene products—has always grown alongside populations and the rising prosperity of a country. Right now, it looks like it is India’s turn.”
