OVERVIEW
Incorporated on September 15, 2008, we are engaged in trading of polymers primarily in Polyethylene (PE) and Polypropylene (PP) which has a wider usage and application in various industries such as packaging, infrastructure, agriculture and many more. We provide a broad range of products to our customers which increases the scope of our customers and our ability to cater to a diversified clientele base. Our comprehensive product portfolio under Polyethylene (PE) includes LLDPE, LDPE, HDPE and MLLDPE. Under Polypropylene (PP), our product portfolio consists of Homo polymer, Impact Co-polymer and Random Co-polymer. Our companys business model emphasizes "Stock & Sale" catering to small, medium and large customers as per their requirement. We are presently engaged in the domestic B2B trading of polymer, wherein we import the material and store the same at our warehouses and depots and sell them thereafter to manufacturer of plastic product. These end use customers include manufacturers of pressure pipes, non-pressure pipes, drip pipe, shrink film, lamination film, mulch film, greenhouse films, CPP films, liners, EPE foam, woven sack bags, spun bond nonwoven fabric, paint pails, crates, houseware products, suitcases, thin wall containers.
Polyethylene (PE) and Polypropylene (PP) are two of the most consumed thermoplastic components in the world. PE is the most commonly produced and consumed polymer compound globally. If finds application in a wide range of products, ranging from every day usage products to niche products. Some of the uses of PE include usage in manufacture of PET bottles, bags & food containers, pipes & pipe fittings. Flexible packaging films, and medical implants, to name a few. The popularity of polypropylene stems from its unique blend of properties including flexibility, moisture resistance, superior impact strength, insulation properties, and the smallest impact1 on environment amongst all popular thermoplastics. These unique properties & attributes has led to its usage as mouldings, fibers, tape, foam, and film. In these separate forms PP is used across a wide range of industries including automotive, plastic packaging, technical textiles, and plastic parts used in machinery/equipments.
