Our Story
Surfactant Industries is a specialised manufacturing unit and division of the Lohiya Group of Industries, established in 1950. The parent group initially operated in the Ultramarine Blue and Detergents segments.

Today we manufacture water-resistant wood adhesives meeting EN 204 D3, D2 wood glues, paper adhesives, lamination adhesives, pressure-sensitive adhesives, glass cleaners, and metal treatment chemicals.
