Laxness Expands Rhenodiv Production At Jhagadia Site
The new production line will feature state-of-the-art equipment and technology, allowing Lanxess to produce high-quality technology tire release agents more efficiently. Currently, Lanxess has such a facility in Argentina. Once this facility becomes operational it will cater to the Indian Sub-continent & Asian markets.
The production of high-performance tires and molded elastomer products relies on the use of effective release agents. Process safety and low scrap rates are key for the efficient production of tires and molded elastomer articles. Rhenodiv release agents are strictly water-based, solvent-free and free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and therefore, environmentally friendly. Lanxess Rhein Chemie business unit has the solutions, market understanding, production knowledge and comprehensive service to support its customers at every stage of the process chain.
The laying of the foundation stone was done by Dr. Jens Hendrik Fischer, Global BU Head of Rhein Chemie, Dr. Holger Graf, Global Head of Production and Namitesh Roy Choudhury, Vice Chairman & Managing Director Lanxess India, along with U Parmeshwara Sriganesh, BU Head Rhein Chemie India region. The project is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2024.
