Guwahati, Feb 27 (IBNS): The Lubrizol Corporation, inventors and the largest manufacturers of CPVC compound worldwide and Finolex Industries Limited, the PVC pipes and fittings manufacturer in India, on Monday announced the signing of FlowGuard (R) Processor agreement for the manufacturing and sale of Finolex FlowGuard (R) Plus pipes and fittings in India.

“Lubrizol is dedicated to supplying the highest quality CPVC compounds to service the Indian hot & cold water plumbing markets,” Matthew Timmons, Managing Director, Lubrizol Advanced Materials India Pvt. Ltd said.

“Our partnership with Finolex Industries highlights the need and importance of quality CPVC pipes and fittings made from time-tested CPVC compounds provided by Lubrizol. Since January 2016, we have been manufacturing these world quality materials from a state-of-the art plant in Dahej, Gujarat. Our association with Finolex will further strengthen FlowGuard’s commitment to delivering reliability in India through Finolex’s wide spread network in the country,” Timmons said.

With FlowGuard’s raw material and support, our track record of providing superior products for Indian market gets strengthened. We look forward to a successful partnership,” Chhabria said.
