Message from the Founder & Managing Director
Making our mark in Asia’s thriving PVC industry
PANKAJ JAIN
Founder & Managing Director
Production Engineer
Punjab Engineering College
Building on our legacy on acrylics with ICAP -SIRA Italy and our deep understanding of spray drying, we started our research into PVC additives, back in 2012, with one mission – to make our mark in Asia’s PVC growth story with the highest quality PVC additives. AKRELON, our new business division for PVC additives, reflect 3 core values:
INNOVATE
From our founding years, we have learnt the value of investing in the world’s best research equipment. Our PVC application lab and R&D center boast an unparalleled array of test equipment. We meticulously examine over 30 parameters - from the QC of monomers, catalysts and surfactants; to the in-process tests during polymerization, and finally right through to the final powder properties.
EXCEL
Our PVC additives have been tested across numerous PVC applications to ensure fusion and impact parameters match that of the global best-in-class products. Besides the product excellence, workforce satisfaction, safety and sustainability command equal attention:
-
PVC spray-drying technology uses Swedish LPG with nearly zero emission.
-
5% of our earnings are annually re-assigned to reward and recognitions of our employees.
-
Monomer storage and transfer has been fully automated to reduce worker’s handling hazardous materials
DELIVER VALUE
We invite you, our customer to experience growth. Count on our PVC experts for support, explore our application lab for seamless product testing and the latest trends in PVC processing. We want to empower you with technology and solutions to revolutionize your specific industry and foster sustainable growth.
