The 10th International Convention on Colorants (COC 25) will be held on 6th and 7th March 2025 at The Club, Andheri, Mumbai. This biennial event is organized jointly by Department of Speciality Chemicals Technology (formerly Department of Dyestuff Technology), Institute of Chemical Technology and The Dyes & Pigments Manufacturers Association of India (formerly The Dyestuff Manufacturers Association of India). Its purpose is to provide a platform for discussing the current status and future trends in the colorants field.
While the Indian chemical industry seems to have by and large weathered the worldwide pandemic and its aftermath, the Indian colorants industry was severely impacted by volatility in raw material prices and rising transportation costs.
The continuing war in Ukraine, conflict in the Middle East and disruption in the Red Sea shipping corridor have drastically affected global business. Developing and adopting inherently safe, efficient and environmentally friendly manufacturing processes has therefore become imperative. COC 25 will be an occasion for industry professionals, academicians, manufacturers and application specialists to network and address all these and other relevant issues. It will feature a select group of national and international speakers who are recognized experts in their chosen field.
Over 250 delegates are expected to attend this convention thereby creating a very good opportunity to make new contacts and renew old ones.
This convention will be immensely beneficial to entrepreneurs, marketing and manufacturing professionals, R&D scientists and university researchers.
