Janak Mehta, former president, Dyestuffs Manufacturers Association of India (DMAI), has been appointed chairman of the Asia Dyestuff Industry Federation, an industry body representing dyestuffs, pigments, optical brighteners and dyes intermediates manufacturers, for a tenure of five years during the federation’s meeting, which took place in Shanghai.
This development marks the establishment of the India chapter of ADIF and coincides with the centenary celebrations of the China dyestuff industry. ADIF also appointed four vice-chairmen from DMAI, whose executive secretary was designated as deputy secretary general, ADIF.
The federation will work towards the development of the Asian colorant industry by promoting communication and exchange information among its members. Through sustained bi-lateral and multi-lateral cooperation as well as for holding seminars, and exhibitions between different members, it aims to create opportunities and conditions conducive for the development of the Asian colorant industry.
In his maiden address, Mehta expressed his optimism that with the support and cooperation of all the stakeholders, ADIF would be able to perform its activities to the benefit of all concerned to usher better days for the Asian dyestuff industry. He appealed to all the members to come together and join all their efforts in this direction.
There has been a dynamic shift in the colorant manufacturing and consumer industry as more and more of the business shifts towards Asia.
ADIF represents the association of dyestuff and pigment manufacturers in Asia and has a combined annual production capacity translating in $20-25 billion of sales.
Currently headquartered in Beijing, the establishment of the India chapter will facilitate and promote the interest of the Indian dyestuffs and colorant industry through its branch office in Mumbai, functioning via the DMAI secretariat.
