sizes and use different filtration media based on these parameters. As per industry sources the medium<br />

and high efficiency filters require around 2 - 2.5 square metre <strong>of</strong> filter media per filter.<br />

The filters are housed in the Air handling unit. The AHU can have different combinations <strong>of</strong> pre filter,<br />

Medium and high efficiency filters. A typical 3000 CFM AHU requires 2 - 4 filters.<br />

As per industry sources the demand for AHU in 2007-08 is estimated to be around 32,000 units. In<br />

addition the total number <strong>of</strong> AHU in 2006-07 is estimated to be 1.3 lakhs. Thus, the demand for<br />

HVAC filters for centralized air conditioning is estimated at 0.8 million square meters valued at Rs.<br />

10 crore. The HVAC industry has witnessed a growth rate in excess <strong>of</strong> 25 % over the last few years.<br />

<strong>Segment</strong>s such as IT/ITES, retail, industrial, entertainment, pharma, healthcare, hospitality, telecom<br />

and banking fuelled the growth <strong>of</strong> the commercial air-conditioning industry. With continued<br />

investments in infrastructure, the commercial air-conditioning industry is expected to grow at 20% per<br />

annum over the next few years. Thus, the market size is expected to increase to 2 million square<br />

meters by 2012-13. The market potential in 2012-13 is estimated to be Rs. 30 crore. An inflationary<br />

increase <strong>of</strong> 5% has also been considered to estimate the market size.<br />
