Four generations of excellence in testing
Since 1950, FITCO has helped Indian industry, research laboratories, and quality teams select, install, and support reliable material testing systems from global technology partners.
FITCO is not just a supplier. It is a family-built testing partner.
The story began in Ahmedabad in 1950, when Shri Kalyanbhai Bholabhai Javeri founded Federal India Trading Company and placed the company's first major installation at ATIRA.
Each generation added a new layer of capability: textile testing, paper and jute testing, power sector applications, plastics and composites, polymers, packaging, aerospace, defense, pharmaceuticals, and digital-first customer support.
That family continuity matters because testing equipment is not a one-time sale. Customers need selection guidance, installation, warranty support, calibration coordination, training, spares, and service accountability years after a machine arrives.
From textile research to modern material testing.
The FITCO timeline is now treated as the main page story, with the family milestones and customer sectors preserved from the original page.
