HEAD-SALES ANUPAM RASAYAN INDIA LIMITED
nupam Rasayan India Limited is a manufacturer of life science and other specialty chemicals, with its plants located in Sachin industrial region and Jhagadia industrial region of Gujarat state of India. The Company has currently 7 manufacturing sites. The Company is a manufacturer and supplier of a wide range of products from agrochemicals (actives and advanced intermediates), pharmaceutical intermediates, and polymer intermediates to biocides, combining excellent product quality and competitive pricing. Our strength is the multi-step synthesis processes, which is rare in the custom manufacturing industry. The Company has expanded its research and development (“R&D”) centre, to provide impetus in promoting process optimization, enhancing safety, environment sustainability and curtailing the costs. Despite the ongoing pandemic and its deep impact on supply chains and various facets of the businesses, the Company was
With Tanfac acquisition, Anupam will become one of the rare companies who can manufacture HF/KF, Intermediates based on HF/KF, Advance Intermediates and finally Active Ingredients/End Products therefore offering the value chain and further enhancing the multi-step synthesis capabilities.
able to keep all of its production and supporting operations running at full capacity due to the adequate safeguards put in place as well as the flexible work practices. The company performs many chemistries as part of its core strength. Among these chemistries, Fluorination (Halex Reaction) using Potassium Fluoride is a key chemistry, which the Company performs on a very large scale and is a leading player in India with production capacity of 4000 – 5000 MT/ Year. It is also expanding the current capacity by adding new Fluorination block with again around 4000 Tons/Year capacity based on the commitments received from customers in Japan, Europe and USA. The company aims to become an entity recognised worldwide for the quality of its products, technology and ability to work with the complex chemistries. The Company has newly commercialized the following processes: (1) Cryogenic Reaction, (2) Ammoxidation, (3) Sodium Azide Chemistry, (4) Denitro Chlorination, (5) Photo Chlorination, (6) Photo Bromination. The Indian manufacturer has further also selected the chemical processes like (1) Hoffmann Rearrangement, (2) Cyclopropane Chemistry, (3) Ethylene Oxide Chemistry, (4) Isobutylene Reaction, (5) Chlorination using POCl3 and PCl5, (6) Butyl Lithium Chemistry, (7) Pinner Reaction and (8) Vilsmeier Haack Reaction to be implemented in future. In a bid to optimize production processes, the Company is moving from batch production to continuous production in addition to updating its manufacturing equipment and infrastructure. The new R&D centre focuses on plug flow reactors with installations of Corning G1 and G4 advanced flow reactors.
