Phychem Technologies Limited is an established, specialized business-to-business (B2B) manufacturer of rotational moulding (roto moulding) polymer compounds, which are utilized as key raw material inputs for producing a wide range of hollow plastic products. Incorporated in June 2013 as a private limited company and subsequently converted into a public limited company in August 2025, the company has built a resilient business model operating across three primary pillars: manufactured product sales, job-work processing services, and the authorized distribution of highly specialized chemicals and rotational moulding auxiliary tools. The company's core value proposition is built upon its ability to formulate customized, high-performance polyethylene-based mixtures that incorporate custom additives to offer features such as enhanced UV stability, stone aesthetics, flame retardancy, and thermal insulation.
The company's diverse product portfolio comprises customized polyethylene compounds (such as color powders, stone effect compounds, Polyethylene foam compounds, and Super Tuff HDPE compounds), and custom-moulded storage tanks. Their services include technical consulting, toll pulverising (custom grinding of polymers), and rotolining services. This diverse product suite enables Phychem to cater to institutional clients across multiple end-use sectors, including building and construction, automotive, marine, railways, furniture, toys, agriculture, and waste processing. Geographically, Phychem operates a robust nationwide network in India (covering 24 states) and has scaled an impressive international footprint.

All manufacturing operations are consolidated at their sole, state-of-the-art facility located in Khatwad, Tal - Dindori, Nashik District, Maharashtra. This specialized factory houses advanced equipment, including pulverizers, extruders, high-speed color mixers, and rotational moulding machinery, supported by an in-house testing laboratory for melt flow index and impact testing. As of Fiscal 2026, the factory operates three fully functional rotational moulding machines10. The installed annual capacity for Roto Moulding Compounds is 6,000 MT, which operated at a capacity utilization rate of 65.45% in Fiscal 2026 (producing 3,927 MT), compared to 59.93% in Fiscal 2025 (3,596 MT produced) and 76.24% in Fiscal 2024 (on a lower installed capacity of 4,100 MT with 3,126 MT produced).
