GSFC scouts global markets for Nylon-6 fibres

Gujarat State Fertilizers & Chemicals Ltd (GSFC) is exploring global export opportunities for its Nylon-6 fibres GUJCON-CRF and GUJCON-PRF.
"GSFC is revolutionising the business of fertilisers and industrial chemicals and has innovated and pioneered yet another revolutionary product GUJCON-CRF and GUJCON-PRF," GSFC Chairman and Managing Director Sudeep Kumar Nanda said at the launch of the products in Hyderabad yesterday.
"I informed the audience comprising eminent builders, architects, dealers and suppliers of construction materials and specialty chemicals about GSFC recently exporting its first consignment of Nylon-6 to Myanmar. We have geared up to harness this field of opportunities by offering high-quality patented products. Similar products are available only in USA, Belgium, while India is the third one," he told PTI.

He said, "GSFC aims to leverage opportunities in construction and infrastructure sectors in India and overseas markets. We are exploring opportunities of export of these products to African countries, Gulf countries including UAE and Dubai, Sri Lanka, Canada. Their response is positive."
A small quantity of the fibres, when added to cement for secondary reinforcement, increases the serviceability, durability and life of the structures by preventing shrinkage cracks and water seepage and by enhancing performance properties such as resistance to wear and tear, impact, shock, load, abrasion, he added.
