[ Who We Are ]

Shree Khodiyar Engineering Works

Shree Khodiyar Engineering Works (SKEW) is a Rajkot-based manufacturer of biomass briquetting press machines and pellet machines, helping convert agricultural, industrial, and forestry waste into clean, usable fuel briquettes and pellets. Based in Gujarat’s leading industrial hub, we design, manufacture, and support briquetting plants, small ring die pellet machines, and related machinery — including dryers, hammer mills, and cutters — for customers across India and abroad who are turning biomass waste into a sustainable energy resource.

Our expertise lies in Mechanical Ram-type briquetting press technology. Our three flagship models — SK-6000, SK-7000, and SK-9000 — are engineered to produce briquettes of 60 mm, 70 mm, and 90 mm diameter respectively, each built to run non-stop with a preventive maintenance schedule that minimises unplanned breakdowns.

Our Story: How It All Began

The story of Shree Khodiyar Engineering Works begins with its founder, Maheshbhai. What started as hands-on manufacturing experience grew, more than one and a half decades ago, into a business supplying critical precision components to other briquetting press machine manufacturers. That early groundwork — built on reliability and close attention to engineering detail — gave Maheshbhai deep, practical insight into how briquetting machinery is built and where it needed to improve.

About a decade later, that experience was put to work under our own name: Shree Khodiyar Engineering Works began manufacturing its own brand of briquetting press machines. Since 2005, the company has grown into a recognised name in biomass briquetting technology, combining years of hands-on manufacturing know-how with a state-of-the-art range of briquetting press machines and dependable after-sales service.

Small Ring Die Pellet Machine — Built for the Small Entrepreneur

Many people today want to start their own pellet manufacturing business, but most of the machines available in the market are large-capacity pellet plants meant for big industrial setups — out of reach for a first-time or small-scale entrepreneur. Shree Khodiyar Engineering Works fills this gap with our small ring die pellet machine, built specifically for smaller production volumes without compromising on build quality or output consistency.

This makes it an ideal starting point for new pellet manufacturers, farmers, and small biomass processing units who want to enter the pellet-making business at a lower investment, with the same manufacturing reliability and after-sales support that our briquetting customers already trust.
