Can you give us a brief of your company and your products?
Viva Composite Panel is one of India’s leading manufacturers of aluminium composite panels (ACPs). Viva is renowned for delivering innovative and premium products for various architectural, interior, and signage applications. Our product portfolio caters to a broad spectrum of market needs, including exterior ACPs for facades, interior panels for stylish décor, fire-resistant ACPs for safety-focused projects, and specialised signage panels for the advertising industry. In the Indian market, we have carved a niche by blending international quality standards with a deep understanding of local requirements, offering products that balance aesthetics, durability, and cost-effectiveness.

How has the demand for ACPs gone up in recent years?
The demand for ACPs has grown significantly in recent years because of rapid urbanisation, infrastructural expansion, and a rising preference for sustainable building materials. The Indian market has witnessed an upsurge due to government initiatives such as Smart Cities, affordable housing projects, and industrial corridor development. ACPs have also seen increased adoption across diverse industries. For example, the hospitality sector has started using ACPs extensively because they enhance aesthetics while ensuring durability. Similarly, the automotive industry, especially for bus body manufacturing, has embraced ACPs because of their lightweight nature and weather-resistant properties. Government institutions and educational establishments are turning to ACPs for modern looks and low maintenance. With such wide-ranging applications, ACPs have become preferred across various sectors, fuelling consistent demand and growth.

Can you shed some light on the technologies you employ to produce your products?
At Viva, we have always been at the forefront of technological innovation. We are proud to have installed India’s first-ever four-colour coating line, a revolutionary step in the ACP industry. This cutting-edge technology allows us to create unique multi-colour finishes with unparalleled precision, meeting the evolving aesthetic demands of architects and designers. Additionally, our manufacturing processes leverage advanced Korean technology for lamination and coating, ensuring superior quality, consistency, and durability. These innovations enable us to deliver ACPs that meet and exceed international standards.

Can you walk us through the sustainable manufacturing methods you have adopted to develop your products?
Sustainability lies at the heart of our manufacturing philosophy. At Viva, we utilise recycled aluminium and polyethylene, significantly reducing waste and resource consumption. Our production processes incorporate energy-efficient technologies, such as the advanced Korean lamination systems, and employ low-VOC (volatile organic compounds) coatings to minimise environmental impact. Furthermore, our new four-colour coating line is designed with sustainability in mind, optimising energy use while delivering high-quality outputs. These measures ensure that our products contribute positively to the environment and sustainable building practices.

What aspects set your products apart from their competitors?
Viva’s products distinguish themselves through innovation, quality, and a customer-focused approach. Our new four-colour coating line allows us to produce ACPs with unmatched colour diversity and precision, setting a new benchmark in the industry. Advanced Korean technology ensures high durability, consistent performance, and premium finishes. Additionally, our commitment to sustainability and a robust product range that includes fire-resistant panels and customised solutions ensures that we cater to every architectural and design need.
