Sheen lac Paints Corporation

 

One of the biggest paint manufacturers in India, Sheenlac started as a proprietorship firm and now is a limited liability corporation. The promoter of this firm is Mr. John Peter. He is the founder Chairman of the Sheenlac group of companies. He started the paint business in the year 1962. The history of how the Corporation was formed is given below. In the year 2007 all the manufacturing units were amalgamated into a group called the Sheenlac Paints Corporation. The corporation is the amalgamation of the following firms:

 

·         Super coat Industries

·         Surface Coating Industries

·         Sphinax Chemical Industries Private Limited

·         Cetex petrochemicals

 

 

 

In the year 1962 Mr. John Peter founded a proprietorship firm under the name of United Thinner Agencies as a trading company. Till 1967 this trading firm did good business and established itself. On 26th April 1967 this was converted into a registered firm. The firm was then started production (till then they were traders) of thinners. Later in the year 1970 Mr, John Peter acquired a plot 109B Developed Plots, Ambattur Industrial Estate, Chenpai 600098 from the Department of Industries and Commerce, Tamilnadu for the construction of a factory. Here he erected machinery for the production of Paints, Thinners and Allied products. Thus a big factory was born in Ambattur. Being situated inside the Industrial estate the firm got a lot of subsidies applicable for small scale industries. However the factory was now moving away from a small scale industry to a full-fledged factory. On the 6th of November 1971 a new firm was started in the name of Sphinax Chemical Industries. The paints and other products manufactured here had a very good demand in the market and to cater to the increase in demand on 29th July 1977 the firm was converted into a private limited company called Sphinax chemicals Industries P Ltd. In 1981 as a part of its expansion the company also started branches in Thrissur, Chennai, Vijayawada, Bangalore, and Coimbatore. In 1986 the group had started a new paint manufacturing factory under the name of Polycoat Industries at 48-C, Developed Plots, Ambattur Industrial Estate, Chennai - 600 098 exclusively for production of automotive paints & Wood finishes with Mrs. Mary John W/o,Mr.John Peter as the Proprietrix. Due to some unavoidable reasons this unit as well as Sphinax Chemical Industries Private Limited, were closed in 1989 - 90 and later on started a new partnership firm in the name of "Super coat Industries" in the year 1991 - 92.

 

As part of expansion the company purchased the adjoining plot 108-C, Developed plots, Ambattur Industrial Estate, Chennai - 600 098 and expanded the capacities by constructing a multi storied building for storing purpose, a building to accommodate the R&D. In 1997 - 98 the firm Super coat Industries was again converted into a Proprietrix concern, with Mrs. Mary John W/o Mr. John Peter as the proprietrix. The company is having a Research and Development wing functioning under the able guidance of well qualified chemists. To cater to the increased market demand the "Super coat Industries" constructed a 3 storied factory building with well-equipped machinery in 1999 with capacity to produce 2 Lakhs liters of Paints and Wood finishes in a month. In the same year Super coat Industries also programmed for the ISO and obtained the certificate of ISO 9001 - from BVQI. In 1993 the group had started another proprietary concern with Mr.Sudhir John as the proprietor with the name of "Surface Coating Industries" Located at 139-142, Sidco Industrial Estate, Thirumazhasai, Chennai - 602 107, exclusively for N.C. Thinner & Wood Polish Production. The company has a well-equipped plant, with a capacity to produce 7 to 10 lakhs liters of Thinner and 2 Lakhs liters of Wood Polish per month. The Proprietor of the concern is Mr. Sudhir John S/o. Mr. John Peter, a well qualified person with chemistry as main, also has an experience in the paint field for more than 12 years and thus made a turnover of Rs.320.000 millions in 1999-2000. To meet the increased market demand the Surface Coating Industries acquired a new land at Poonamallee bye pass road measuring 12 acres. In the above place 3 factory building were constructed each measuring 500 sq.ft. The First Shed for Thinner Production, which has a capacity to produce 50,000 liters per day. The second shed for production of wood polish, which has a capacity to produce 20,000 liters per day. The Third shed is used for storage of packing materials. For the Raw materials storage there are about 6 over head tanks. This factory is equipped with latest technology for fire fighting with fire hydrant system and water spray system fixed. The factory employees are given proper training by M/s. Cetex petro chemicals to take care of the general and Fire Safety Measurements. At present the company is on the process of getting the ISO 9001 Certification. Also this is an atomized plant. 1992 Sphinax Chemical Industries was converted into Sphinax Chemical Industries Ltd. after which it stopped its production activities and started to concentrate fully in marketing and trading activities. For meeting the market needs Sphinax shifted its Thrissur Branch to Kochi, new branches were started in Kannur, Madurai, Hyderabad, Baroda, Cuttack etc.
