BASF India Limited has opened the first stage of a new technical centre for the leather industry in Thane near Mumbai, India, including a fully-equipped pilot tannery. 

The company decided to site the centre in India as it was considered a good location from which to serve major suppliers of the leather and garment industry throughout South Asia. Furthermore as India is one of the most important growth markets for BASF’s leather business in Asia it is believed that the new technical centre will help the company to enhance its position in the country.
