Watch-outs

Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification

  • Land and Building Permits

    Delays in obtaining land lease or building permits can stall plant setup.

  • Raw Material Supply

    Securing a reliable supplier for high‑density polyurethane foam is critical; price volatility can affect margins.

  • Skilled Labor

    Recruiting and training operators for foam extrusion and cutting requires time and may impact early production.

  • Compliance with Safety Standards

    Foam manufacturing involves flammable materials; non‑compliance with fire safety regulations can halt operations.

  • Bank Credit Conditions

    PMEGP credit terms (interest rate, repayment period) must be aligned with the project’s cash flow; misalignment can strain working capital.
