Varivane collaborated extensively with the client and Cochin Shipyard to create, produce and supply a complete set of accommodation furniture in accordance with the specifications of Def Stan 02-128. Constructed from steel, the collection included two and three-tier bunks, various lockers and cabinets, as well as a wide range of storage options tailored for the Indian Navy and worldwide operations.

A prestigious project, Varivane is honoured to have worked alongside the customer and end user to provide a safe, secure and comfortable habitability solution for the INS Vikrant aircraft carrier.

The launch and subsequent commissioning of INS Vikrant marked a major achievement for India's naval forces and defence industry, contributing to the country's maritime strength and regional security.
