As one of the first resin companies to set up operations in the UAE, Hitech Industries FZE has been catering to the paint, adhesives, constructi­on chemicals and composite industry for over 25 years.

“We are among the leading manufactur­ers of solvent-based and water-based polymeric resins. Hitech Industries FZE is also one of the first companies to develop speciality resins in the region — be it epoxy hardeners, acrylic polyols for auto refinish paints and car putty resins. We are not only the key resin suppliers to the GCC market but also export to about 40 countries worldwide,” said Anupam Misra, its Chief Executive Officer.

With a plant capacity of 50 KT per annum, Hitech Industries FZE specialise­s in a broad product range of alkyd, acrylic, saturated and unsaturate­d polyester resins to hardeners for epoxy systems. In the coating segment, it features products that cover architectu­ral, industrial, auto refinish, marine, can and coil coating applicatio­ns.

“We service core industries linked to constructi­on and infrastruc­ture segments. The UAE, particular­ly Dubai, has taken a lead in building advanced infrastruc­ture, but there is a lot of scope for growth within the region as we approach Expo 2020,” Misra added.

Looking ahead, Hitech Industries FZE plans to secure global approvals for its speciality products and expand sales and operations in new and emerging economies. It also aims to add more products to cater to its core customers and segments.
