Featuring MAANYA BOILERS PVT LTD – Biomax-100 for Garg Plywood Industries
Background
In India, industrial boilers are classified into two groups:
• IBR Boilers – Regulated under the Indian Boiler Regulations (IBR), 1950.
• Non-IBR Boilers – Exempt from IBR, generally due to small water capacity (≤ 25 litres) or low pressure.
Garg Plywood Industries, a leading plywood and veneer manufacturer, needed a high-capacity, multi-fuel steam generator for continuous process heating. MAANYA BOILERS PVT LTD proposed the Biomax-100 IBR boiler.
At Maanya Boilers Pvt. Ltd., we design both IBR and Non-IBR boilers for industries ranging from food processing and textile to pharmaceuticals. While IBR boilers are ideal for large-scale operations where safety and regulation are crucial, Non-IBR boilers provide flexibility and faster steam generation for smaller plants. Our in-house engineering ensures compliance, efficiency, and long-term performance in every unit we deliver.

Side-by-Side Comparison – IBR vs Non-IBR Boilers
| Feature | IBR Boiler (Biomax-100) | Non-IBR Boiler |
|---|---|---|
| Regulation | Governed by IBR 1950, requires approvals and certification | Not governed by IBR |
| Capacity | >25 litres; high output (10 TPH in this case) | ≤25 litres; small output |
| Operating Pressure | High pressure (17.54 kg/cm²) | Low pressure (<7 kg/cm²) |
| Applications | Large-scale industries (plywood, pharma, textiles, paper, chemicals) | Small-scale uses (laundries, kitchens, small process heating) |
| Safety Oversight | Multiple inspections by certified IBR inspectors | Minimal statutory inspection |
| Lifespan | 20+ years with proper maintenance | Shorter service life |
| Fuel Flexibility | Multi-fuel (agro-waste, coal, biomass) | Mostly liquid/gas fuels |
| Environmental Control | Equipped with dust collectors, scrubbers | Usually no advanced emission control |
| Legal Operation | Allowed for high-pressure applications nationwide | Restricted for low-pressure use only |
Choosing between IBR and Non-IBR boilers depends largely on the industry type, operational scale, and safety requirements. IBR boilers are mandatory wherever steam pressure and capacity exceed the limits set by the Indian Boiler Regulations, ensuring reliability, performance, and strict safety compliance in large-scale operations. Non-IBR boilers, on the other hand, are more flexible and ideal for small-to-medium plants that need quicker start-ups, reduced installation costs, and easier maintenance.
At Maanya Boilers Pvt. Ltd., our engineering team manufactures both boiler types with equal emphasis on durability, efficiency, and regulatory precision. Every IBR unit is designed to handle continuous high-pressure operations, while our Non-IBR systems are optimized for light industrial use, delivering consistent steam output with minimal downtime. Each boiler undergoes pressure testing, quality inspection, and energy-efficiency validation before dispatch.
We also provide end-to-end support—right from capacity selection and fuel analysis to installation and post-commissioning maintenance. By offering customized solutions, Maanya Boilers helps clients achieve better thermal efficiency and lower operating costs. Whether a customer requires a compact, easy-to-operate unit or a fully compliant IBR system for heavy-duty production, our experts guide them toward the most economical and sustainable choice for their specific process needs.
