Key things buyers should know
- Full value chain in-house — one of the few Indian players that makes both compostable resins and finished SKUs under one roof, so buyers can source raw material or end products from a single supplier
- Authorised distributor of NatureWorks Ingeo™ PLA resins across India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Pakistan — single-source access to the complete compostable polymer portfolio
- Multi-jurisdiction certifications on the same product (USA + EU + India) — particularly useful for exporters who need certificates valid across markets
- Drop-in compatible resins — run on standard PE/PP extrusion and moulding lines, no equipment retooling needed
- Strategic location — warehouse at Tiruppur (India’s largest garment-export cluster) supports fast turnaround for apparel and retail buyers
- Patented ReX Process — NTIC’s proprietary technology for bio-resins with stable morphology and conventional-plastic performance
- 13+ years in operation with consistent positive growth — EBITDA up 51.77% and book net worth up 16.29% in FY 2022–23

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Natur Tec India’s manufacturing technology is rooted in NTIC’s proprietary ReX Process, which produces bio-based resins with a unique and stable morphology — enabling high-performance compostable films and rigid parts that process well on conventional plastic-conversion equipment. This makes Natur-Tec® resins a drop-in sustainable alternative for converters who already run polyethylene or polypropylene lines.
The company operates multiple facilities in Tamil Nadu, including manufacturing units at Chrompet and Vanagaram (Chennai), and a warehouse hub at Tiruppur, India’s largest knitwear and garment-export cluster — placing Natur-Tec® in close proximity to one of its most important end-customer industries.
Distribution footprint: Beyond its own resin platforms, Natur Tec India is the authorised distributor of NatureWorks’ Ingeo™ PLA resins across India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Pakistan, giving buyers access to a complete portfolio of compostable polymer grades from a single source.
Leadership:
- Dr. Sundar Rajan Balakrishnan — Managing Director (PhD, Chemical Engineering)
- Ramdas Gautam — Director
- Vineet Raghuvir Dalal — Director All three directors have been associated with the company since incorporation in 2013.
