Shivtek Spechemi Industries Ltd, the flagship specialty chemicals company of the Shiva Group of Industries, is making a strong statement on sustainability and import substitution at PlastIndia 2026, underway at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi, from February 5–10.
 
Shivtek is presenting its advanced portfolio of Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE) and green biodegradable plasticizers, underscoring its commitment to responsible chemistry and domestic capacity building. The five-day event brings together leading players from the plastics industry and allied sectors.
 
A key highlight of Shivtek’s showcase is CPE, a critical specialty material used across wood plastic composites (WPC), construction, wire and cable, automotive, rubber, plastics, and magnetic materials. 
 
With India heavily reliant on imports for CPE, Shivtek is setting up the country’s first domestic CPE manufacturing facility at Rajpura, Punjab. The upcoming plant aims to strengthen local supply chains, cut import dependence, and support the rising demand for WPC as a sustainable alternative to natural wood.
 
Alongside CPE, Shivtek is spotlighting Shivachlor Green Pro, India’s first biodegradable and renewable-source chlorinated plasticizer. Derived from palm oil–based methyl esters, the phthalate-free and non-toxic product is readily biodegradable and designed to replace conventional petroleum-based plasticizers across flexible PVC, wires and cables, flooring, synthetic leather, adhesives, and sealants.
 
Speaking on the company’s participation, Amitt Nenwani, Managing Director, Shivtek Spechemi Industries, said, “PlastIndia 2026 provides a timely platform to demonstrate how Indian specialty chemical manufacturers can lead the transition toward responsible and sustainable materials. 
 
"Through our CPE initiative, we are addressing a critical import gap while supporting eco-friendly applications like wood plastic composites. At the same time, our green plasticizers reflect our belief that sustainability and performance can go hand in hand, without compromise.”
 
Shivtek’s participation reflects the broader industry momentum toward environmentally responsible materials, circular economy practices, and resilient supply chains. The company continues to invest in eco-centric manufacturing initiatives, including Zero Liquid Discharge systems, renewable energy integration, and closed-loop processing.
 
With exports to over 70 countries and a sharpened focus on strengthening domestic manufacturing, Shivtek’s presence at PlastIndia 2026 reinforces its ambition to position India as a trusted global hub for specialty and sustainable chemical solutions.
