Clariant Chemicals (India) is one of India's leading specialty chemicals companies and is the No. 1 player in pigments, textile chemicals and leather chemicals. The company combines leading edge technology and innovations with superior applications and customer service skills. Clariant is committed to sustainable growth in India. Their 1,200 employees generate sales of Rs 950 crore through four business divisions - Textile, Leather and Paper Chemicals, Pigments and Additives, Functional Chemicals and Masterbatches.

Their innovative products play a key role in their customers' manufacturing and treatment processes and add value to their end products. Their success is based on the knowhow of their people and their ability to identify new customer needs at an early stage and to work together with customers to develop innovative, efficient solutions. Clariant's presence in India through its affiliates goes back to more than five decades. Its journey began in 1947 with the founding of Sandoz Products . The acquisition of the Hoechst specialty chemicals business in 1997 brought Colour-Chem and its subsidiaries Vanavil Dyes and Chemicals and Kundalika Investments into its fold. Thereafter, the acquisition of BTP plc in 2000 led to the integration of a fourth company BTP India into the group's operations in India. In 2006, four of the affiliates were integrated into Colour-Chem and the company was subsequently renamed Clariant Chemicals (India).

Clariant Chemicals (India) represents a valuable repository of manufacturing and marketing experience. Its constituents were all well respected companies who played an invaluable role in the development of the textiles, leather, paints, plastics, printing inks and agrochemicals industries in India.
