Starting a construction chemical manufacturing business in India can be a promising opportunity, but one of the first questions every new entrepreneur faces is:
How many construction chemical products should I launch initially?
Should you start with 100+ products like a multinational construction chemical company? Or should you begin with 20–30 products like many regional manufacturers?
According to Mr. Kishan Shah, Owner of KR Chemical Industries, the focus should not simply be on launching a large number of products. A better strategy is to select the right market segment and create a complete product range within that segment.
Start Your Construction Chemical Business With the Right Product Range
When planning a new construction chemical manufacturing plant, first identify the product category you want to enter.
Instead of investing in several unrelated construction chemical products, build a complete product bucket around one category.
For example, if you want to enter the tile adhesive manufacturing business, your product portfolio can include:
-
- Type 1 Tile Adhesive – for suitable interior applications -
- Type 2 Tile Adhesive – for interior applications -
- Type 3 Tile Adhesive – for exterior and advanced applications -
- Type 4 Tile Adhesive – for higher-performance applications -
- Type 5 Tile Adhesive – for specialized applications -
- Tile Grout -
- Epoxy Grout
- Tile Cleaner
Why Is a Complete Construction Chemical Product Range Important?
A multinational construction chemical manufacturer may offer more than 100 different products.
For a new or regional brand, launching such a large portfolio from the beginning may not always be necessary.
Instead, you can focus your investment, manufacturing capacity, marketing and sales efforts on developing a strong presence in one segment.
A simple strategy can be:
Choose Your Segment → Complete the Product Range → Establish Your Brand → Expand Into New Categories
For example, a company entering tile adhesive manufacturing can first establish its complete tile fixing and grouting range before expanding into other construction chemical categories.
Starting a Tile Adhesive Manufacturing Business
The tile adhesive manufacturing business is one of the segments entrepreneurs may consider when entering the construction chemicals and drymix industry.
However, selecting products is only one part of the process.
Before setting up a tile adhesive manufacturing plant, businesses also need to consider important factors such as:
- Product selection
- Manufacturing requirements
- Plant space
- Power requirements
- Production planning
- Product positioning
- Future product expansion
Construction Chemical Plant Space and Power Requirements
After finalizing your product portfolio, the next major questions are
How much space is required for a construction chemical manufacturing plant?
and
How much power is required for a tile adhesive or drymix manufacturing plant?
These requirements can affect your plant planning and initial investment.
In our next article/video, Mr. Kishan Shah of KR Chemical Industries will discuss the minimum space and power requirements to consider when planning a construction chemical and drymix manufacturing plant.
