Brenntag, a global chemicals and ingredients distributor, has signed a new supply agreement with Sudarshan Chemical Industries Limited. Under this agreement, Brenntag will distribute anticorrosive pigments in Australia. These pigments will serve applications across paints, coatings, plastics, and other sectors.
The agreement builds on a successful twenty-year collaboration with Heubach GmbH. Heubach, recently acquired by Sudarshan, served the New Zealand market. Both companies are extending their partnership into Australia. Their goal is to deliver innovative and sustainable pigment solutions to a wider customer base.
High-Performance Pigments for Harsh Climates
Sudarshan’s portfolio includes Heucophos™ and Heucorin™, two high-performance anticorrosive pigment ranges. The company engineers these products to:
*Extend the service life of materials
*Reduce long-term maintenance costs
*Provide environmentally friendly, sustainable solutions
According to the press release, Sudarshan designed these pigments to withstand Australia’s demanding climate. They offer durable protection against corrosion, making them especially valuable for industries that need long-lasting performance.
Voices from the Partnership
Robert Kurniadi Kwok, Head of Sales for Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand at Sudarshan Chemical Industries, stated, “We are pleased to extend our relationship with Brenntag, a partner we deeply value for their market knowledge, reliability, and customer reach. Together, we can deliver our sustainable anticorrosive pigment solutions, such as Heucophos™ and Heucorin™, to a wider base of customers in Australia, helping them meet the highest standards of performance and protection.”
Gary Woolly, Commercial Manager for Australia and New Zealand at Brenntag Specialties Material Science APAC, highlighted, “Our collaboration with Heubach, and now Sudarshan, has been built on more than two decades of trust and shared growth. Over the years, we have seen the business develop strongly in New Zealand, and this new agreement marks the exciting next phase as we extend our partnership into the Australian market. We are confident that Sudarshan’s innovation in pigment chemistry, combined with Brenntag’s distribution expertise, will bring significant value to customers across Australia.”
