View in video summary
In 1920, Gahagan Paints and Varnish came into being at Lower Parel in Mumbai. A century later, this paint company continues to be in an enviable position- that of being the second largest paint company in India and one of the most trusted names in the industry.
So what does it take to go from being a relatively small paint company to being a heavyweight like Kansai Nerolac?
It takes hard work and passion. It takes commitment and courage. It means marching ahead with fearless innovation. It involves taking risks and celebrating when they work. And going back to the drawing board when they do not. It means being keenly attuned to the needs of the customer. And still being invested in the environment. It requires investing in R and D, in technology, in your workforce. More importantly, it requires the unwavering belief in the product and resolute determination.
Vision: It is Nerolac's vision to leverage global technology, for serving our customers with superior coating systems built on innovative and superior products and world class solutions, to strengthen our leadership in Industrial coatings and propel for leadership in Architectural coatings, all to the delight of our stakeholders.
