Gulbrandsen to Build New Functional Polymers Plant in India, Scheduled to Begin Operations in 2026

Gulbrandsen, a company专注于生产聚氨酯用锡催化剂, has announced plans to establish additional polyethylene wax manufacturing capabilities and a new functional polymers plant at its facility in Dahej, India.

The expansion, expected to be operational by mid-2026, will help Gulbrandsen increase its production of specialty polymers and waxes to meet growing global demand, ensure supply reliability, and expand its product portfolio.

Specialty polymers and waxes are fundamental components of everyday materials. Product lines related to end uses include expanded polystyrene (EPS), release agents, personal care and cosmetics, adhesives, inks, and coatings.

"This investment highlights our commitment to serving global customers," said Ron Hatchell, Global Business Director of Gulbrandsen. "By expanding our production capacity and diversifying our product offerings, we are enhancing our ability to meet the evolving needs of our customers and solidifying our leadership position in the industry."

In addition to this major expansion, Gulbrandsen has also recently completed de-bottlenecking work that has unleashed additional capacity at its existing wax plant in Vadodara.

The new facility in Dahej will utilize state-of-the-art technology and adhere to the highest safety and environmental sustainability standards, reflecting Gulbrandsen's commitment to responsible manufacturing.
