WILHELM NIEMANN MASCHINENFABRIK, Melle again succeeded in standing up to the European competitors and received another bulk order from India’s market leader Asian Paints. Asian Paints belongs to the 10 largest producers of decorative coatings in the world. They have 22 production facilities. Due to the rapidly growing Indian market, Asian Paints is currently building another production facility, the seventh in India, in Khandala in the federal state Maharashtra.
With a scheduled daily capacity of 2500 tons / day this will again be the largest paint factory of the world. Now 10 KREIS-DISSOLVER®s with 315 kW / 430 PS driving power should be delivered – the useful capacity is 15,000 litres (8 for the new factory in Khandala and 2 for the extension of the factory in Rohtak / New Delhi).
In 2008 already NIEMANN was awarded with the first bulk from this company. At that time, 6 of these machines were delivered to the plant in Rohtak / New Delhi. Asian Paints is so satisfied with the technical design, the performance and with the reliableness of the machines from Melle / Germany, that they again placed the order with NIEMANN.
Despite good references, intensive negotiations in Mumbai were this time, too, required, in order to win in 2011 the project about this prestigious and largest project in the paint field. The world market-leading position of the Melle enterprise specialised in the field of dissolver technology was thus again confirmed!
