A Question arises ……
Why does it not self spread when business case exists?
Reasons
Awareness Barrier
• Weak associations
• Untrained fabricators
Investment barrier
• Bank Linkages
• Costly technology
Technology acceptanc

What can be done in these enterprises in Clusters?
Better Designed Products: Product innovation is
very limited across most sub-sectors
Improved production methods: Several pilot
initiatives in the past that need to be up scaled
Waste Management: Mainly undertaken as end-of-
pipe treatment under the pressure of regulatory
authorities, media and community

Way forward - Up scaling
