Tokyo/Japan – DIC Corporation has recently announced that its subsidiary Ideal Chemi Plast based in the Indian state of Maharashtra, opened and commenced operations at a new production facility for coating resins for automotive and infrastructure applications in the state’s Supa Japanese Industrial Zone in February 2024. The new facility has tripled Ideal Chemi Plast’s production capacity for coating resins, positioning it to expand this business in India and across South Asia, as well as in the Middle East.

The DIC Group is promoting a strategy aimed at establishing itself as a dominant player in the global industrial polymers market. A core focus of this strategy is to grow the Group’s coating resins business worldwide. The Indian coating resins market, a key target of this effort, is projected to continue seeing annual growth of approximately 9 %. The Indian Government is promoting “Make in India,” an initiative to build up the country’s manufacturing sector, one feature of which is the provision of incentives to foreign companies that manufacture in India.

By tripling Ideal Chemi Plast’s production capacity for coating resins, this new production facility has boosted the company’s ability to further expand its business by responding to rising domestic demand and offering localized solutions that meet the needs of coating resins customers. To ensure it operates in a manner that does not harm the environment, this new facility has installed a Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) system, enabling it to treat all wastewater internally to produce clean water suitable for industrial use. In a bid to reduce its carbon footprint, the facility has also opted to use clean natural gas and energy-efficient equipment, and has adopted environment-friendly, safe operating practices.
