2. INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT /BACKGROUND INFORMATION

2.1. Identification of the project and project proponent.

Unsaturated Polyester Resin and Alkyd Resin are industrial resins which are

synthetic polymers having adhesive and useful reactive properties. Due to fast

industrialization and also of housing industry, there is a growing demand of paints

both. Indian Paint Industry has grown at a compounded annual growth rate

(CAGR) of 12-13% in the last ten years and decorative paints segment accounts

for nearly 65-70% of the Indian paint industry. Paints industry is mostly located in

western part of the country. So there is a huge gap of supply of raw materials in

the eastern part. This project will be a small attempt to supply that market in

eastern India. Unsaturated Polyester Resins are utilized by the fibre-glass industry

for building boats and car bodies, for coating concrete to give a smooth sterile

surface in food-manufacturing plants, for encapsulating electrical components.

Global demand for this resin is increasing rapidly. Looking the expected demand of

these resins in domestic as well as global market and growing volume of various

types of industrial resins manufacturing industries, the proposed project have

acceptability in the local and international market.

2.3. Need for the Project & Importance to the Country

High demand in Resin is due to their chemical properties and usage, like

production of adhesives, varnishes and food glazing agents. They are also

considered as an important raw material used for making organic synthesis. Keep

in mind the glowing requirements of the clients, the Manufacturers, Exporters and

Suppliers are offering quality Resin. Resin manufacturers process the product in

view of its utilization. Owing to these enormous usages, the resin suppliers,

exporters and sellers offer it at reasonable prices.

The global epoxy resin market was valued at $6.0 billion in 2013, and is projected

to reach $9.2 billion by 2019, growing at a CAGR of 7.4% between 2014 and

2019.

The demand for resin market is supposed to rise in Asia-Pacific due to the robust

growth in end-user industries in China and India.

Industry is witnessing high growth due to increasing applications, technological

advancements, and growing demand in the Asia-Pacific region. The global wind

energy market development is one of the major market drivers for resins.

Polyester resin also constitutes more than half of the resin used in Indian

composite industry.

Rise in raw materials cost and increasing awareness of health hazards associated

with BPA-based products are the major stumbling blocks of the market. The

competitive environment of the resin market, for example growing demand of

alkyd and polyester resins, is providing opportunity for manufacturers in this

region. Rapid growth of the resin market is driven by the growth in end-user

industries.

2.4. Demand and Supply gap

Rising global demand for paints & coatings in various industrial applications is one

of the major drivers for growth of the resins market. Additionally, increasing

demand for resins from different industries is fuelling the resins market.

Transparency Market Research has published a new report titled “Epoxy Resins

Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and



Page No. 12

Forecast, 2014 - 2020.” According to the report, the global epoxy resins

market was valued at USD 6.64 billion in 2013 and is anticipated to reach USD

10.55 billion at the end of 2020, growing at a CAGR of 6.9% between 2014 and

2020. There is a rising demand of paints both due to rapid industrialization and

also of housing industry. In the last ten years, the Indian Paint Industry has grown

at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12-13%. Decorative paints

segment accounts for nearly 65-70% of the Indian paint industry. Paints industry

is mostly located in western part of the country so there is a huge gap of supply of

raw materials in the eastern part. This project will be a small attempt to supply

that market in eastern India.

Unsaturated polyester resins (UPR) are known for their commercial usage in

fiberglass reinforced plastics (FRP) which are utilized in building & constructions,

marine, wind energy, electrical & electronics, pipes & tanks, and

automotive/transportation. The unsaturated polyester resin market in India is

suspended to grow substantially in the next five years. The market is mainly driven

by domestic consumption basically by government, NGOs, and civic bodies. The

Indian unsaturated polyester resin market showed strong growth in the last couple

of years due to strong GDP growth, increased manufacturing activity, and core

sector growth. According to market forecasts, Indian unsaturated polyester resin

market is expected to reach 445 million pounds by 2018.

Competition in the Indian market swells in recent years. This had many companies

opting out of low-margin segments, as competition resulted in lower prices. A gap

http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/epoxy-resins-market.html





Page No. 13

between demand and supply is created. Such remarkable price hikes take place

when there is removal of some of the key competitors, which leads to demand

override and as a consequence prices start soaring in a free-pricing market.

2.5. Imports Vs. Indigenous production

The state and pattern of growth of the economy determine the resin requirement.

The requirements of resin may be fulfilled either through indigenous production

and/or through imports. It is not possible for a developing country to import huge

quantities of resin because of foreign exchange constraints where as it is better for

a country to be self-sufficient in its resin requirements. The products manufactured

will substitute the imports, saving foreign exchange to India. It is also proposed to

export 20-30% of the resin to Middle East and South East Asia.

2.6. Export Possibility

There may be large opportunities to become a global supplier of quality resin. Also

there exists abundant market opportunities in the neighboring regions of Asia,

Africa and the Middle East.

2.7. Domestic/Export Markets

The finished goods will be sold in domestic market and would be largely exported

to the Regulated International Market as per demand.

projected as follows:



Page No. 35

Table 14: Water Requirement

The water will be available from Rain Water Harvesting (RWH) system and rest part

will be available from deep water tube well.

6.7. Sewerage System

There will not be any process waste water (or) cooling water blow down. As

Industrial effluent from process, cooling and washing activity is taken into raw

effluent collection tank cum equalization tank and after proper equalization, it is

completely evaporated by Thermic Fluid Evaporator (Capacity: 100L/hr) within the

premises. Hence, the unit maintains “Zero Effluent Discharge”.

Sanitary waste water will be treated in septic tank followed by soak pit.

6.8. Industrial Waste Management

The main source of hazardous waste generation is evaporation residue from

Thermal Fluid Evaporator due to evaporation of liquid effluent. The other sources

of hazardous waste are discarded containers/Barrel from storage and handling of

raw materials and spent/used oil generation from plant machinery. The unit will
