Business
Ultramarine & Pigments Limited manufactures and sells inorganic pigments, surfactants, IT-enabled services (ITES), and business process outsourcing (BPO) services. The company produces ultramarine blue and violet pigments for applications in paints, plastics, inks, cosmetics, and detergents; specialty surfactants including linear alkyl benzene sulfonic acid (LABSA), methyl ester sulfonates (MES), and alpha olefin sulfonates (AOS) for detergents, personal care, and industrial uses; as well as detergent products under the OOB brand. It operates manufacturing facilities in Chennai and Ranipet, Tamil Nadu, and Naidupeta, Andhra Pradesh, with ITES divisions supporting its operations, serving customers in over 50 countries including India. Founded in 1960 and headquartered in Chennai, India, the company focuses on the specialty chemicals sector, primarily targeting paints, plastics, FMCG, cosmetics, and industrial markets with its pigments and surfactants divisions contributing the majority of revenue. Listed on the BSE (ticker: ULTRAMAR.BO), Ultramarine & Pigments maintains a diversified business model with pigments at approximately 32% of FY23 revenue, surfactants at 59%, and ITES at 9%. In recent developments, the company approved a debottlenecking and capacity enhancement for its pigments plant in November 2024, increasing capacity from 6,000 MT to 7,200 MT at a cost of Rs. 2,500 lakhs funded by internal accruals and debt. On December 12, 2024, it acquired 32.72 acres of industrial plots from SIPCOT at Manapparai, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, on a 99-year lease for future expansion and new projects. These strategic expansions follow the incorporation of wholly-owned subsidiary Ultramarine Speciality Chemicals Limited in December 2019 to bolster pigment production, alongside sustained revenue growth including a record Q2 FY26 net sales of Rs. 196.07 crores, up 21.87% year-over-year.
