Innovating for sustainability

Researchers and scientists at our advanced R&D centres at Ankleshwar, Dahej and Thane in India, are constantly looking for newer, better synthesis processes and more sustainable products.

We have dedicated teams that focus on designing processes that conserve water, lower impact on the environment, reduce resource inputs, and even ways to recycle or reuse by-products.
