Linde India Inks Long-Term Industrial Gas Supply Deal with Asian Paints
Linde India has signed a long-term agreement with Asian Paints (Polymers) Private Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Asian Paints Limited, to supply industrial gases via pipeline to Asian Paints' upcoming facility in Dahej, Gujarat. The agreement was announced on March 13.
The new Asian Paints plant will produce vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) and vinyl acetate ethylene (VAE) emulsions, which are essential raw materials for various industrial applications.
To support this expansion, Linde India is establishing its third air separation unit (ASU) in Dahej, boasting a liquid capacity of 245 TPD and a gaseous oxygen capacity of 100 TPD. This move aligns with Linde India's long-term strategy to develop a pipeline cluster in the Dahej region, strengthening its industrial gas supply network.
By investing in state-of-the-art gas infrastructure, Linde India aims to enhance its market presence and support India's growing chemical and manufacturing sectors.
Linde India Limited, formerly known as BOC India Limited, is a member of the Linde Group. Linde operates over 30 facilities in India, including the country's largest air separation plant.
