Four decades of building the supply chain behind the product
Petrochem (India) was founded to link manufacturers across Japan, China, Thailand, South Korea, Saudi Arabia and Singapore with India’s rubber, polymer and chemical industry – importing and supplying the raw materials that end up in tyres, cables, rollers, automotive parts and footwear.
Under Managing Director Sandeep Madaan, in the trade for over 40 years, PCI operates as an all-India marketing organisation for synthetic rubbers, elastomers, specialty polymers and processing chemicals – working directly with clients to match grade, price and delivery to what the production line actually needs.
