Website details attached:

 

Subject was established by technically qualified personnel in the year 1955 initially to manufacture metallic stearates. The company then diversified its activities to manufacture paints additives such as driers. As time passed, they widened their range as PVC stabilizers by incorporating lead compounds, Barium / Cadmium solids and liquids, calcium / zinc complexes.

In all their endeavours, inhouse development of technology was of paramount importance. As the needs of industry go on changing, more sophisticated high performance equipments started appearing in the market place. This opened new opportunities for them. To keep abreast with the latest developments and to expand their activities, the new range of liquid barium / cadmium, calcium / zinc, barium / zinc stabilizers for indoor and outdoor applications of PVC were developed and manufactured.

Subject is a manufacturer of speciality chemicals that improve the performance characteristics of a wide variety of products. The company's success is primarily due to its consistent ability to provide customers with top quality products, technical assistance and solutions for their ever changing needs.

For the paints and coating industries they satisfy many major needs from driers, fungicides, dispersion aids and viscosity modifiers. Other metal soaps and chemicals produced by the company find application as fungicides and preservatives for adhesives, cordage, textiles and wood. Still others serve as components in metal plating, as additives and anticorrosin compounds for lubricants, and as combustion catalysts for fuel oil. Their products are tested through rigorous quality control both with regard to raw materials and finished products. In addition, they offer pre and after sales technical assistance to their customers through their trained and experienced personnel and undertake development of special formulations tailored to their requirements.

Subject also manufactures tailor made stabilizers for specific purposes for the consumer requirements. Subject had technical know-how collaboration with M/s. BASF Germany for liquid stabilizers. This has benefited them to establish better products and acquired ability to meet the international standards. In the future, their main thrust shall be on exports of paint and plastic additives manufactured at their end.

Export of the product shall require local agents to market and promote their products in their region. They are open for such agencies to carry out this business. Research and Development changing with time with present laboratory set up & technical assistance, the company has made products of international repute, technically sound backup to market their products in a better way.
