Chemco, one of India’s leading packaging material manufacturers, has successfully completed its merger with Gaurav Containers Limited, a company based in Daman. This strategic move increases Chemco’s manufacturing presence to six locations across India. The merger is a significant step by the family-owned business to consolidate its operations, enhancing transparency and efficiency for its customers.

Gaurav Containers Limited, which is known for its popular consumer jar brand, G-PET, will now be integrated into the Chemco Brands portfolio. This integration is expected to drive growth through the introduction of new products and a focus on automation within production lines. GCL’s existing customers will greatly benefit from Chemco’s extensive reach and its capability to incorporate new machinery and supply from multiple locations, as opposed to being restricted to just one facility in Daman.

This merger occurs amidst a flurry of activity in the Indian packaging industry, which is on the brink of significant expansion. Several deals have recently been finalised or are nearing completion, highlighting the sector’s dynamism. Both international and local private equity funds, along with strategic players in the same industry, are actively seeking opportunities to secure their positions in anticipation of the forthcoming growth phase.

A key driver of this growth is the per capita consumption of packaging materials, which remains low in India compared to other countries. However, India’s proven growth trajectory suggests that it will not be long before it aligns with global averages, propelling demand for packaging materials upward. This merger not only strengthens Chemco’s market position but also sets the stage for capturing the anticipated surge in demand.
