The diversity of industrial chemicals results from continued human persistence to increase efficiency and performance in every aspect; be it of equipment in the manufacturing unit or the end product being delivered to customers. The market constitutes 18 percent of the total chemicals market in India and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 12 percent till FY22. India becoming a potential manufacturing hub over China has given a boost to Indian enterprises in a diverse range of chemical manufacturing. However, stringent quality protocols and a lack of resources have restricted the desired growth of the market.
Tanfac stands out as a one-stop-shop for industrial chemical needs with its Quality Assured products and gigantic product profile. The company is focused on adding value for customers through performance advantages and better ROI. K. SendhilNaathan, the Managing Director & President of Tanfac Industries, says, "We guide our customers on their needs and define the performance standards of our products, subsequently building a strong and loyal customer base. We offer the right products for our customers that meet their needs. We have a wide product range. Our primary product is anhydrous hydrofluoric acid along with many of its derivatives."
The Growth Story
Sendhil continues, “I believe perseverance lies at the core of success. We must try to achieve the goals irrespective of the situation, and failures must come as learning. I believe the attitude of being a learner plays a crucial role in determining the future path.” Tanfac upgraded the ability to manufacture potassium fluoride along with quality standards due to the surge in its demand attributed to its use in drug manufacturing against the Covid-19 virus. These drugs are mainly used for patients that have been infected with the Coronavirus. Sendhil says, “We take pride in it and are grateful for an opportunity of our product being put to life-saving use.” Tanfac is a joint venture between Tamil Nadu Industrial Development Corp (TIDCO) and Aditya Birla Group that owns a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility located 25 km from Pondicherry.
