About the Company
Forbes Marshall is an Indian engineering and energy conservation provider, especially for the process industry. Forbes Marshall makes steam engineering and control instrumentation products. Its origins trace to a venture by J. N. Marshall and Darius Forbes in Pune in the 1940s, with a factory established at Kasarwadi, Pune in 1958. It is based in Pune.

In 2013, Forbes Marshall was voted one of India's top ten best companies to work for.

Forbes Marshall has four manufacturing units in India which are located at Kasarwadi, Pimpri, Hyderabad and Chakan, which is near Pune.

History
It all began in 1926, when J N Marshall & Co, a forerunner of Forbes Marshall, started supplying accessories to a thriving textile industry in Ahmedabad. This marked the beginning of a legacy in steam engineering and instrumentation that will be carried on for years to come. In 1946 Forbes Marshall's shifted its focus to Energy Conservation by entering into the distribution of products for the effective and efficient use of steam.

By 1958, the first manufacturing unit stood tall in Kasarwadi, Pune. Today, Forbes Marshall has manufacturing facilities in four locations across India, the newest one in Chakan, Pune, under the Mega Project Scheme of the Government of Maharashtra. In the same year, Forbes Marshall entered in a tie up with Cochran boilers for selling packaged boilers. 1959 saw the creation of Spirax Marshall, a joint venture with Spirax, UK. Together, we began manufacturing steam engineering products. In 1961, building on the expertise gained through studying hundreds of process plants and giving recommendations for improvements, Forbes Marshall entered into the field of control instrumentation. A range of world class pH analyzers was introduced in a joint venture with Cambridge Instruments, UK. Forbes Marshall also entered into venture with Polymetron, France, to manufacture a complete range of water quality analysers.

Effimax, the first boiler efficiency monitoring system was developed in 1998. In 2000, we established a global presence with setting up of Forbes Marshall Inc. in the United States. Since then, we have established sales, manufacturing and customer support facilities worldwide.

An internationally certified flow meter calibration test rig, the second largest in Asia, was set up by Krohne Marshall in Pune in 2003.

Forbes Marshall and Codel International UK together in 2007, collaborated under Forbes Marshall Codel, for manufacturing of continuous emission monitoring systems for industrial emissions and emission monitoring for road, rail and river tunnels.

Forbes Vyncke, a joint venture with VYNCKE, Belgium established in 2009, began manufacturing boilers, in the range 5 TPH to 30 TPH, for green energy. In 2012, Forbes Solar was incorporated in a joint venture with Azure Earth GmBH, Germany to manufacture a revolutionary solar cogeneration combined heat and power system.

In 2014 Codel became a part of the Forbes Marshall group. We make Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems, dust monitors, gas analyzers, stack emission monitors and insitu oxygen analysers which are invaluable in monitoring the combustion process and the level of pollution. 2015, Forbes Marshall acquired the entire shareholding of its JV partner Spirax, in the steam system business.

Manufacturing Facility
Forbes Marshall owns and operates some of the world's finest manufacturing facilities supported with state-of-the-art technology labs. They have over 40,000 sq mtrs of factory space in four locations at Pune and Hyderabad. The newest is a state of the art manufacturing facility at Chakan, spread over 50 acres.

The Chakan manufacturing facility is certified by the prestigious American Society Of Mechanical Engineer's "ASME 'U' Designator & Certificate" for manufacturing. NBIL has also certified the facility.

Many of its joint venture partners also source their worldwide requirements from Forbes Marshall, India. Its products are used in applications that demand the highest degrees of reliability and accuracy. Manufacturing practices and facilities at Forbes Marshall have been ISO 9001 certified since 1994.

Energy Conservation Tips
Moisture content in steam increases with high TDS levels in the feedwater tank due to water carry over. Wet steam reduces the process efficiency thereby increasing fuel consumption.

As steam is generated, dissolved solids in the boiler feedwater become more and more concentrated. As a result, the steam bubbles formed reach the water surface but do not burst, eventually forming foam which is carried over into the steam mains. This also leads to wastage of fuel due to increased moisture content in steam.
