DOMO Chemicals (Leuna, Germany) has officially ramped up its compounding operations in Mumbai, India. This strategic expansion strengthens DOMO’s position as a solutions provider in the region, and expands its portfolio of engineered materials based on polyamides and other resins.
India’s rapid industrial growth, particularly in e-mobility and electronics, is fueling the need for lightweight, flame- and heat-resistant, and sustainable materials. DOMO’s enhanced capacity will produce locally high-value engineered plastics based on nylon and other resins, designed for applications such as electronic connectors, smart devices and automotive components.
“The establishment of the new line shortens the delivery timeline for our Indian and other Asian customers,” says Soumya Mishra, Head of EM Business India at DOMO. “It will also be accompanied by increased technical support from our local R&D team to help our clients achieve their innovation ambitions.”
DOMO’s latest compounding technology integrates sustainable manufacturing practices that reduce energy use, carbon emissions and production waste – without compromising on quality. The company’s TECHNYL® 4EARTH® range of recycled polyamides exemplifies this commitment, recently winning top honors at the Recycled Plastic Products Show for a PA6-based solution made from recycled fishing nets and textiles, used in TATA TOYO fan and shroud systems. Last year, DOMO Chemicals started up a TECHNYL manufacturing plant in China.
“India stands out as one of our fastest growing markets globally,” says Ron Bult, General Manager Asia at DOMO. “This capacity expansion reinforces our supply chain resilience and our long-term dedication to rapid response, innovation and sustainable growth in the region.”
With this move, DOMO continues to scale its footprint in Asia, delivering next-generation solutions that support smarter mobility, safer electronics and a more sustainable future.
