Paracoat Products Limited, a pioneer in NVH solutions, is showcasing its agro-material reinforced polypropylene composite masterbatch granules at Plast India Expo 2026, highlighting a practical pathway to reduce plastic consumption and emissions through material innovation.
Plastic waste has emerged as one of the most pressing global environmental challenges, with India generating an estimated 9.3 million tonnes of plastic waste annually, nearly 20 percent of global plastic pollution. This growing burden strains waste management systems and undermines climate commitments.
Paracoat’s solution addresses this challenge through composite granules developed using agro waste derived from jute, bamboo, wheat, and rice cultivation. The innovation enables up to a 50 percent reduction in plastic consumption while converting agricultural residues into valuable raw material. By doing so, it reduces dependence on fossil fuels and helps prevent the burning of crop residues, a major source of air pollution. The composite delivers up to 24 percent lower CO₂ emissions compared to virgin plastics, supporting India’s climate action goals and sustainable industrial growth.
Engineered for seamless integration with injection moulding and extrusion processes, the granules blend easily with existing polymer formulations. Manufacturers can customise bio-filler loading while retaining strong mechanical performance, dimensional stability, and productivity.
Mr. Rajesh Poddar, CEO, Paracoat Products Ltd., said, “At Paracoat Products, we believe the future of plastics must be defined by harmony between ecological balance and technological innovation. By harnessing agricultural residues as bio-fillers in our thermoplastic composites, we are setting new benchmarks for sustainable manufacturing. This initiative not only cuts carbon emissions but also directly supports India’s vision for a circular economy while tackling the pressing issue of air pollution caused by burning agro-waste.”
Paracoat is integrating this sustainability breakthrough across its own product portfolio, including parcel shelves, door trims, cladding covers, and other automotive and industrial components. This approach demonstrates how Indian manufacturers can advance the government’s ‘Reduce, Reuse, Recycle’ vision while driving innovation-led growth.
With this launch, Paracoat Products Limited reinforces its position as a frontrunner in sustainable materials innovation. Its participation at Plast India Expo 2026 underlines the role of industry-led solutions in accelerating eco-efficient manufacturing, reducing plastic dependency, and creating value from agricultural residues in line with national priorities.
