A Sea of Green: IFANPlus Plumbers' Meet Packs Our India Showroom

Plumbers packed our India partner's showroom for the IFANPlus Plumbers' Meet. See how IFAN is building an installer network for PPR and brass valves.

Every seat taken. Every cap green and white. Every plumber in the room wearing the same name: IFANPlus.

On September 23, 2026, IFAN Group's authorized partner in India threw open its showroom doors for the IFANPlus Plumbers' Meet, and the local trade showed up in force. More than 30 plumbers filled the floor from wall to wall, turning a sanitaryware showroom into a full-house gathering of IFAN installers.

This was not a sales pitch. It was a statement: IFANPlus is here, and the people who build India's homes are standing behind it.

Win the plumber, win the market

Ask any pipe brand what really moves product in India and you will hear the same answer: the plumber.

Homeowners do not choose PPR by reading spec sheets. They ask the person holding the fusion tool. Builders do the same. When a plumber trusts a brand, that brand goes into every bathroom, every kitchen and every rooftop tank he touches, job after job, year after year.

That is exactly where IFAN is putting its energy. Not on billboards. On the people whose hands decide what goes into the wall.

One room, one brand, one team

Walk into the meet and the first thing you notice is the colour. Rows of white polos with green collars. Rows of IFANPlus caps. Plumbers who arrived as individual tradesmen sat down as one team.

The setting said everything about where IFANPlus sits in the market. The meet ran inside our partner's own showroom, shoulder to shoulder with the sanitaryware, faucets and water heaters that Indian homeowners buy every day. IFANPlus piping was not tucked away in a warehouse. It was front and centre, on giant banners, as the system behind the whole bathroom.

The full IFANPlus line-up was on show:

IFANPlus range Where it goes Why plumbers pick it
PPR pipes and fittings Hot and cold water supply in homes and buildings Heat-fusion joints that become one piece with the pipe
PVC pipes Drainage and cold water lines A full size range from one local stockist
Brass valves Shut-off and control points on every supply line Brass bodies built for daily open-and-close use

Where the real business happens: around the table

Then the plates came out.

Dinner turned the meet into what it really was: a brotherhood of installers. Plumbers who compete for the same jobs all year sat at the same tables, swapped stories from the site and talked shop about fittings, pressure and the jobs that went wrong with other brands.

For our partner, it was pure gold. Every conversation revealed what the market wants next: which sizes move fastest, which fittings plumbers cannot get enough of, and where IFANPlus can win the next project.

Every plumber walked out wearing IFANPlus and carrying it onto job sites across the region. That is a travelling billboard on every street, backed by someone the homeowner already trusts.

This is how IFAN builds markets

The India meet is not a one-off. It is the IFAN playbook, and it is exactly what our distributors get when they partner with us:

  • A brand plumbers wear with pride. Uniforms, caps, banners and showroom displays that turn a dealer's store into an IFAN destination.
  • Installer events that build loyalty. We back our partners to bring the trade in, train them and keep them coming back.
  • One supplier for the whole system. PPR, PVC and HDPE pipes, fittings and brass valves from a single source, so dealers never lose a job for a missing part.
  • Factory-direct support. Fast answers on specs, stock and lead time, straight from the people who make the product.
