Asian Paints is planning to invest ₹2,100 crore for a new manufacturing facility in Dahej, Gujarat. The strategic move is focused on the production of Vinyl Acetate Ethylene Emulsion (VAE) and Vinyl Acetate Monomer (VAM), aiming to elevate the company’s production capabilities and product range significantly.
The selection of Dahej for the cutting-edge facility is strategically timed to capitalize on the area’s robust industrial infrastructure and favourable business landscape. The investment underscores Asian Paints’ commitment to reducing reliance on imports for critical components like VAE and VAM, essential in paint manufacturing.
As reported by bnn, by localizing production, Asian Paints aims to enhance supply chain efficiency and cost-effectiveness, ultimately benefiting consumers. The investment will not only expand Asian Paints manufacturing footprint, but also lay the foundation for a future where innovation, efficiency, and sustainability drive success in the industry.
