Screenotex Engineers Pvt. Ltd. was founded in 1990 in Ahmedabad, Gujarat — a city that has long been the heartland of India's textile industry. From a single workshop focused on flatbed printing machinery, the company grew steadily by building machines that worked reliably and outlasted the competition.
Over 35 years, that founding principle — engineer it right, build it to last — has guided every machine design, every component choice, and every customer relationship. What began as a local manufacturer serving Gujarat's textile mills has grown into a company with machines running at facilities across India and internationally.
Today Screenotex is recognised for precision-engineered textile printing machinery, certified manufacturing systems, and an engineering team that has accumulated more than three decades of domain expertise.
Screenotex traces its origins to 1989, when Mr. Hemant Patel founded Precise & Perfect Engineering. Established as a focused engineering workshop, the company specialized exclusively in flatbed textile screen printing machines and related accessories. Operating from a modest 2,500 sq. ft. workshop with a team of 25 professionals, the early years were defined by hands-on engineering, precision manufacturing, and close engagement with textile producers.
From the beginning, Precise & Perfect Engineering concentrated on refining flatbed screen printing technology. By dedicating its efforts to a single product category, the company developed deep technical expertise and a strong understanding of print accuracy, mechanical stability, and production reliability. This focused approach laid the foundation for the engineering discipline that continues to define Screenotex today.
Screenotex sold its first machine in 1990 and within five years of its inception, the company exported its first machine in 1994, marking the beginning of its international journey. This early entry into global markets reinforced the importance of consistent quality, robust engineering, and dependable performance-standards that remain central to Screenotex's manufacturing philosophy.
Screenotex Engineers Pvt. Ltd. was incorporated in 1993, reflecting a broader vision and long-term commitment to the textile machinery sector. The new identity signaled a transition from a small engineering workshop to an organized manufacturing enterprise with a clear focus on industrial-scale textile printing solutions.
Over the years, Screenotex expanded steadily in scale, capability, and infrastructure. What began as a 2,500 sq. ft. workshop has grown into a modern manufacturing facility comprising 80,000 sq. ft. of workshop space, 20,000 sq. ft. of office space, and 90,000 sq. ft. of dedicated natural green space supporting environmental responsibility. The workforce has expanded from 25 to over 100 skilled professionals, and the company's infrastructure today is capable of producing up to 10 machines per month. Alongside this growth, Screenotex increasingly invested in automation, strengthening manufacturing consistency, accuracy, and process control while maintaining its core engineering values.
Today, Screenotex stands as a third-generation textile family-run organization, combining decades of accumulated knowledge with modern manufacturing practices. While the scale has evolved, the core principles-precision, discipline, reliability, and long-term thinking-remain unchanged.
As Screenotex continues to grow, its focus remains on engineering solutions that deliver consistent results, long service life, and operational confidence. Every machine built reflects a legacy that began with precision engineering and continues through innovation, automation, and responsible manufacturing.
From a single workshop in Ahmedabad to a manufacturing company with machines running across the world — Screenotex's history is one of steady, deliberate progress. Every milestone has been earned through better engineering, not faster growth.
The same founding principles guide us today: build machines that work reliably, stand behind every installation, and never compromise on the engineering standards that define Screenotex quality.
