Stricter regulations to change supply and demand of the coatings landscape in the country, notes Frost & Sullivan’s Chemicals Practice


Dubai, United Arab Emirates-Sunday 24 June 2018 [ AETOS Wire ]

Mass and industrial production of coating products in Iran dates back to the 1940s and started with a nominal capacity of less than 20 million litres per annum in the decorative sector only.

Inappropriate go-to-market strategies, traditional management, lack of liquidity, obsolete formulation and inefficient sales channels are key restraints that hold back a positive growth in this industry.
