TOWARDS MEANINGFUL INNOVATION
The Machinist|Feb 2021
“The current pandemic has sparked a wave of innovation amongst a number of our customers and associates. One such customer is an entrepreneur who manufactures baby diapers and sanitary napkins using Kandui’s breathable film compound. This customer has developed an innovative PPE coat made from non-woven fabrics and a breathable film for the protective gear worn by doctors. Due to the breathable film used, heat escapes seamlessly and the doctors stay cool.” says Ashwin Agarwal, Managing Director, Kandui Industries Pvt. Ltd.

TOWARDS MEANINGFUL INNOVATION

Kandui Industries started its journey in 2006. Currently, a trusted name in the masterbatch sector, it caters across the globe with the state of art technology. Kandui’s holistic approach marks its significance in providing world class quality products and services.

How has the company evolved in the last 14 years?

Our initial focus was being cost effective but now the focus has shifted more towards meaningful innovation keeping the customer in mind and with the target to make benchmark products in the industry.

What have been the highlights of this journey?

Foraying into the challenging business of manufacturing master batches for man-made fibers, initially, we ventured into Black & White in 2011 & Colors in 2015. Since these masterbatches are extremely critical to produce & even small mistakes can prove to be very costly, this helped us in enhancing the overall quality of all our products. Our R&D facility got accredited by The Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR) in 2013. In 2017, we established a separate unit for Filler MB with 35000TPA capacity and in 2019 we donned the pride of being a BIS member, the only 2nd master batch company to be included in this elite group and in 2020 entered into a JV with Okeanos with focus to reduce the amount of plastics in packaging.

How has the Covid-19 pandemic affected Kandui Industries and overall the master batches segment in India?
