Paints & Coatings



Paints & Coatings
The Indian Paints & Coatings industry is valued at $3.5 billion in terms of value and 2 million metric tons by volume. The current per capita consumption is 1.5 kilograms which is far lower than that of global and Asian per capita consumption of 20 kilograms and 5 kilograms respectively. Thus, the industry is expected to continue to exhibit double-digit growth from 2011 to 2015.

To meet this market demand, BASF develops and delivers innovations in the areas of Architectural and Industrial Coatings and help manufacturers to improve their cost competitiveness, quality and sustainability.

Being the world’s leading chemical company, BASF supplies innovative and environmentally friendly raw materials to the manufacturers in the paints and coatings industry. With the acquisition of Ciba, our product portfolio has expanded significantly and covers products ranging from resins to additives, pigments, dispersions, solvents, acrylates & intermediates.

The portfolio also encompasses environment friendly dispersions, lead-free pigments, oxygenated solvents and intermediates like Propylene Carbonate for architectural, automotive & industrial coatings, which reinforce our commitment to grow sustainability in the Paints & Coatings industry.
