With India gradually becoming a manufacturing hub for companies across the globe, it has made a rapid stride in the export market today. And if we look at the current dye industry and its intermediaries, the market is expected to witness an exponential growth. With ever increasing competition, customers are always looking for personalized services in terms of customization of products to their requirement. Furthermore, it has become imperative for players in this segment to stay relevant with the changing market standards.
This is where Shidimo Interaux Pvt. Ltd. established back in 1978 has been leveraging its decades of in-depth industry expertise to perfectly meet customers’ requirements to the fullest. It has given Shidimo a loyal customer base due to its quality products and service delivery. Further, with increasing manufacturing practices, there has been a growing awareness towards the environment wherein, the compliances vary from country to country. Understanding this, Shidimo is in tune with the changing compliances and is committed to providing safe dyestuffs to its customers globally. Be it the heavy metal content in the dyestuffs or the entire Restricted Substance List (RSL) for Europe. This is accomplished with the help of its state-of-the-art laboratory and well qualified and experienced personnel.
“Overall, we are a company which is witnessing good growth in the market since the last couple of years. And when it concerns products like Acid Yellow 17 (2G), Acid Blue 113 (S5R), Acid Orange 116, Acid Red 449 and Acid Blue 359, we are in the top three manufacturers in the country today”, says Naitam Kapadia, Director at Shidimo Interaux.
“We are always striving to ensure all the requirements of our customers are met to their exact standards. We are now working on developing acid dyes used in specialized applications thus enabling our customers to increase their purchase basket with us”, Naitam adds.

The Road Ahead
“We are ready to manufacture any acid dye required by potential clients. We have started manufacturing acid dyes to cater to the stationary ink market and other non textile usages of our products. The fastest growth we are seeing today is in the leather industry for which we have started a dedicated leather division in our company. This division is not only manufacturing acid dyes specifically for the leather industry but also syntans required for the processing of leather in the tanneries”, concludes Vaishal Kapadia, Director at Shidimo Interaux.
Detergent liquid is the logical next step in the company’s future production plans. Shidimo will be launching liquid detergent for use in washing machine and detergents for general cleaning around your household which can be the cleaning of utensils, floors, bathrooms & metallic surfaces. The company is actively seeking distributors or wholesalers around the country for its detergent and dyes business.
