Gulbrandsen to expand polyethylene wax capacity in Dahej

Expected to be operational by mid-2026, this expansion will help Gulbrandsen increase its specialty polymers and wax production to meet growing global demand, ensure supply reliability, and widen its product portfolio.

Specialty polymers and waxes are building blocks for essential materials used in everyday life. End-use-related product lines include expanded polystyrene (EPS), mold release agents, personal care & cosmetics, adhesives, inks, and coatings.

"This investment underscores our commitment to serving our customers worldwide," said Ron Hatchell, Global Business Director at Gulbrandsen. "By expanding our production capacity and diversifying our product offerings, we are strengthening our ability to meet evolving customer needs and solidifying our leadership position in the industry."

In addition to this major expansion, Gulbrandsen has recently completed debottlenecking efforts that have unlocked additional capacity at its existing wax plant in Vadodara.

The new facilities in Dahej will incorporate state-of-the-art technology and adhere to the highest standards of safety and environmental sustainability, reflecting Gulbrandsen's dedication to responsible manufacturing.
