Arch Chemicals opens Mumbai office

Arch Chemicals, Inc., based in Norwalk, Conn., U.S.A., a leading supplier of water sanitizing products, cosmetic ingredients, wood preservatives and biocides for health and hygiene applications as well as industrial products, has opened an office in Mumbai, India. Sanjeev Mantri, Arch’s country manager, will oversee the company’s efforts to expand sales and procurement activities in India. “With its growing economy and reduced trade barriers, India is a preferred market for Arch Chemicals,” explains Mantri. Arch has had a small presence in India for the past six years.  (December 14, 2006)
