Swastik BoatsThree decades of pioneering high-performance rowing boat manufacturing in India.

Founder & Visionary
Entrepreneurship is often defined by vision — the ability to recognize opportunities, innovate within specialized industries, and build organizations that endure over decades. Rajesh Lunawat, the founder of Swastik Fibchem Industry, exemplifies this spirit through his pioneering work in the manufacturing of high-performance rowing boats and composite marine products in India.
Years of Excellence
Boats Delivered and Exported
In the mid-1990s, when specialized sports equipment manufacturing in India was still developing, Rajesh Lunawat recognized a unique opportunity within the world of competitive rowing. With a deep interest in engineering, materials, and sports technology, he envisioned building a company capable of producing international-quality racing rowing shells in India.
This vision led to the founding of Swastik Fibchem Industry in 1995, marking the beginning of a long journey dedicated to innovation, craftsmanship, and the development of professional rowing equipment.
A significant milestone in Rajesh Lunawat's journey came in 1997, when he was invited to Germany by Mr. Klaus Filter, the technical director of FISA.
This invitation provided Lunawat with a valuable opportunity to gain deeper insight into European boat-building techniques, precision engineering, and international standards of racing shells. The experience in Germany helped shape the technical direction and manufacturing philosophy of Swastik Fibchem Industry.
Exposure to advanced boat design principles and production methods strengthened Lunawat's determination to establish a world-class rowing boat manufacturing facility in India, capable of producing equipment that could compete with established international brands.
Following this formative period, Swastik Fibchem Industry began developing and manufacturing high-performance racing rowing boats designed for athletes, rowing clubs, universities, and sports federations.
The company produces a full range of competitive rowing shells, including:
Each boat is designed with a strong focus on hydrodynamic efficiency, balance, durability, and lightweight construction — all critical factors in competitive rowing.
Under Rajesh Lunawat's leadership, Swastik Fibchem Industry adopted advanced composite manufacturing technologies that significantly improved boat performance.
Ultra-lightweight, exceptional strength-to-weight ratio
Superior impact resistance and structural integrity
Optimal stiffness with minimal weight penalty
Precision curing for flawless composite layup
These materials enable the production of boats that are both extremely lightweight and structurally strong, providing athletes with superior speed and responsiveness on the water.
Rajesh Lunawat's vision extended beyond domestic manufacturing. From the beginning, he aimed to position Swastik Fibchem Industry as a globally competitive brand within the international rowing industry.
By combining advanced materials, precision craftsmanship, and practical rowing experience, the company has developed boats designed to meet the expectations of professional athletes, rowing federations, and training institutions worldwide.
For Lunawat, manufacturing high-performance boats is not simply a business — it is a pursuit of engineering excellence. Each rowing shell produced by Swastik Fibchem Industry is designed with careful attention to structural integrity, hydrodynamic performance, and athlete comfort.
This dedication to quality has helped the company maintain a strong reputation within the rowing community for nearly three decades.
Through the establishment of Swastik Fibchem Industry in 1995, Rajesh Lunawat contributed significantly to the growth of rowing equipment manufacturing in India. His work has helped make professional racing boats accessible to athletes and rowing institutions while promoting the development of the sport across the country.
As the global rowing community continues to evolve, Swastik Fibchem Industry remains focused on innovation and international expansion. Guided by Rajesh Lunawat's entrepreneurial leadership and technical expertise, the company aims to further strengthen its presence in international markets, competitive rowing programs, and sports federations.
Through dedication, global exposure, and a commitment to engineering excellence, Rajesh Lunawat has established Swastik Fibchem Industry as a respected name in the field of high-performance rowing boat manufacturing.
