Widest range of emulsion polymers in India

Widest range of emulsion polymers in India

Apcotex has contributed to India's polymer industry through several pioneering developments, including the country's first indigenous production of Vinyl Pyridine Latex and the development of specialised synthetic rubber and latex technologies.

Vinyl Pyridine latex is a terpolymer that is specially designed for bonding synthetic fabrics and rubber compounds. Though the tyre industry has utilised Vinyl Pyridine Latex (VP Latex) for decades, Apcotex was the first company to produce this raw material in India.

Today, our manufacturing facilities at Taloja, Maharashtra, and Valia, Gujarat, produce a diverse range of polymers for industrial applications worldwide.

With planned investments exceeding ₹200 crore, we are expanding capacity, strengthening manufacturing flexibility and enhancing our ability to serve evolving customer needs.

Our DSIR-recognised R&D infrastructure, pilot reactors and specialised application laboratories support the development of high-performance polymers tailored to specific industrial requirements.

Innovations such as PlumaSilk™, our silicone-free polymeric donning technology for gloves, reflect our focus on application-led research.

A proposed modern R&D Centre will further strengthen our capabilities in indigenous product development, formulation customisation and commercial scale-up.
