While there is an immense opportunity for tapping into the Indian textile machinery market, there are a couple of challenges that need to be tackled in order to gain sustainable growth. Several textile manufacturers prefer to purchase second hand machinery to supplant their old/worn out machinery as it is accessible at lesser prices than new machinery. The vendor base for spares and technology components for modern textile machines is not very strong in India. As a result, a large part of it has to be imported from other countries till a strong vendor base gets developed.
Another challenge which Indian textile market is facing is that product basket is very much diversified, which requires different machine specifications and technology. Moreover, the machinery preferred by organised sector and small & medium enterprises is very different. Different technology levels are also used for supplying to domestic and export markets. So, the overall market size gets divided into many segments and there is lack of industry which could manufacture all kind of spares.
All parts and accessories for weaving machinery are manufactured in India. Reed is the key part of a weaving machine, which leads the fabric style, quality and appearance. The quality of reed determines the fabric quality and production efficiency. Emerging as the backbone of textile sector, the Vibrant Reeds and Healds started in 2003 at Coimbatore, by R. Partheepan & Brammanantham with a motto to support the well-established and developing textile industries at the time.
It was the time when majority of mills were dependent on Japan, European countries and very
few north Indian manufacturers. Their unmatched after sales support and specialisation according to the needs of consumers has fetched those 500 plus south Indian and 200 plus north Indian happy customers in the intensely competitive industry.
Vibrant Reeds' development was fuelled by a well-defined vision and mission, and it began by offering engineering solutions to the textile weaving industry. Today, Vibrant Reeds is in its continuous quest for growth, has gained significant importance not only in Tamil Nadu but across India and abroad through their finest reeds.

“Your true worth is determined by how much more you give in value than you take in payment,” quotes Partheepan from the book “Go Giver”, which they believe as their strength in this competitive market. Best quality weaving reeds are made from metal with carbon steel/stainless steel dents for long life. Reeds are made for Rapier, Airjet, projectile and tape loom narrow fabrics looms.
