Onnal Specializes in Offering Industry Specific, Cost-effective & Customized PEB Solutions

Jabalpur (M.P.) based company Onnal, specializes in providing PEB based complete solutions which are cheaper, faster, environment-friendly, and more reliable with better aesthetics and quality. The company is engaged in prefabricated building & structures manufacturing and offers cost-effective, customized designing and erection solution for industrial, agricultural, retail, hospitality, and construction sectors.


According to Mr. Alik W. Theophilus, Managing Director, "We, at Onnal, prefabricate the assembling components of any shelter or other structures and transport the complete assemblies and sub-assemblies to the construction site. We use prefabrication techniques to construct residential blocks, housing compartments, repeated housing units, factory shelters, office blocks, warehouses, factory buildings and structures. Capable of reducing building construction time by up to 50%, Onnal's structural engineers, designers, technicians and process engineers come together seamlessly to design and construct the most innovative lightweight steel frame modules, intelligently applied for use in a variety of building types. We provide designing solution with an aim to achieve time and cost targets."

Elaborating further he says, "Structures designed by us, comply with the Indian Standards for applicable load. All buildings and structures are designed in accordance with the latest codes and standards such as Metal building manufacturer's code (MBMA), American institute of steel construction manual (AISC) and Indian standards (IS)."

Talking on the growth of this sector he informs, "Over the years, the need for faster construction, cost-efficiency and superior aesthetics has reinforced the emergence of pre-engineered building systems (PEB). An increased focus toward environmentfriendly green construction is also driving the growth of PEB. The low penetration rate of just ~30% and a high annual growth rate of 25-30% offer a lot of opportunities in the Indian PEB industry."

Explaining the benefits of PEB, he says that prefabrication is an alternative to the existing conventional system of construction. It allows the erection of structures faster and easier than traditional methods. It also enables creating the strong structures in any terrain for less cost. Quality materials and precise fabrication have made prefabricated structures a success. The majority of institutional, commercial and residential structures are now engineered using prefabricated components. The prefab development technologies are rapidly transforming to become inexpensive and functional in order to suit distinctive landscape.


Moreover, inventive use of component construction allows us to design spatially rich structures. Onnal's efforts today are for the complete satisfaction of the clients. With complete know-how of available systems and techniques associated with the various design modules, we develop structures that incorporate sustainable technologies for reducing energy consumption as well as environmental damage, he avers.
