Effect of novel coronavirus (Covid 19) on the supply chain and consumption on various sectors is impacting credit availability and adding liquidity pressure on the Indian industries. Globally, the Coronavirus outbreak is expected to have immense worldwide implications - GDP growth taking a hit, dropping oil prices due to weaker demand, interest rate cuts, etc. IPF PLUS of April 2020 showed how India can mitigate the Covid 19 challenge and, at the same time, reap gains with the right set of government policies and company strategies.
Besides, IPF covered topics like "Castings & Forgings/Dies & Moulds", "Fasteners, Adhesives & Sealants", "Hand Tools" and "Country Focus: Germany". Though forging industry is battling through many challenges and changes, IPF found that it is finding its way in this highly uncertain condition and is heading for a promising future in the coming months. Due to their wide range of applications, demand for hand tools is growing at a rapid pace. IPF takes a closer look at the growth avenues for hand tools in India and trends in the industry.
Industrial Products Finder (IPF), a pioneer industrial journal in India, was launched in 1972. It gives industrial manufacturers and exclusive dealers/importers of industrial products a forum to display their ware, in a medium that was to be made regularly available to the users of these products. IPF focuses on all industrial/engineering products and services, consultancies, repair and reconditioning services, industrial security and safety services, and of late, pollution control and environment protection services. Apart from products, there are also other regular features that complement the core activity – a capsule of important events and developments in the industrial sector, news on companies, projects, joint ventures and mergers, etc; a selection of articles written by experts in the field as well as academics; and information on all important trade fairs, conferences, seminars and training programmers.
