15/10/2025

The site, first opened in 2000 and closed in 2019, now brings together production, R&D, and testing for leather finishing, performance, and packaging coatings. CEO Maarten Heijbroek said the reopening aligns Stahl’s operations with future market demands and strengthens local support for customers in a key growth region.
Equipped with automated systems and a zero liquid waste treatment process, the facility employs around 140 staff. Managing director for India and Bangladesh, Mr Ranganath BV, described the reopening as “both a homecoming and a new beginning” for Stahl in India.
