Lubrizol and Grasim Industries Break Ground on CPVC Resin Plant in India

Lubrizol and Grasim Industries Limited broke ground on the first phase of a 100,000 metric-ton CPVC resin plant in Vilayat, Gujarat, India. According to Lubrizol, the facility, located at the Grasim Industries’ site, will be the largest single-site capacity for CPVC resin production globally. The company says it is designed to meet rising CPVC demand for piping applications in India, as well as neighboring countries like Nepal, Bangladesh and Indonesia. This resin plant will utilize Lubrizol’s CPVC resin manufacturing technology. This technology, coupled with Grasim’s manufacturing, will enable access to locally manufactured CPVC material. In addition to the resin site, Lubrizol is doubling its existing CPVC compound manufacturing capacity at its Dahej, Gujarat, India site from 70,000MT to 140,000MT. Phase one of the resin site in Vilayat, as well as the additional line in Dahej, are expected to be operational by early 2025.
