Dynea Pakistan Limited produces quality urea resin for use in industries like particleboard, chipboard, veneerboard and melamine resin for lamination industry. Together with its wholly owned subsidiary, Visionite (Pvt.) Limited, it is also the largest producer in Pakistan, of moulding compound used for manufacturing dinner sets and electrical accessories.
Joint venture
The joint venture brought together the technical know-how of Dynea A.S.A. and the organizational and marketing ability, knowledge of local conditions and the reputation of the House of Habib. The complete project was financed through NORAD loan and equity contribution. A housing project was also set up through a grant from NORAD to provide comfortable housing for workers and amenities for the whole area.
Technology
Dynea Pakistan has access to and is using the latest technology in the field of amino resins available with Dynea A.S.A., who are recognized as leader in this field. Dynea’s moulding compound technology was developed by Buss A.G. of Switzerland and is the latest in this field.
Purpose of this industry
Manufacturing of formaldehyde and aminoplast resins and of moulding compound were both pioneering ventures introduced for the first time in Pakistan. Now only a small quantity of moulding compound is imported into the country and there are no imports of formaldehyde or liquid resins. Tableware industry has grown 10 times because of the availability of locally manufactured raw material. These industries have also helped save huge foreign exchange for the country.
Product Manufacturing Summary
Catalytic oxidation and dehydrogenation of Methanol produce formaldehyde. It is mixed with water and air and then vaporizes the raw materials. The catalyst bed in the reactor consists of silver, which is regenerated and re-used. The formaldehyde product is drawn from the 1st circulation of the absorber.
It is based upon the reaction of urea and formaldehyde solution. Urea and Formaldehyde is charged into the reactor and heated. After reaching the desired viscosity, the pH is adjusted and cooled before transferring it to the storage tanks.
The basic concept of the moulding compound process is to impregnate the cellulose or wood flour filler with resin and to condense the resin and dry the material to provide a moulding composition. Pigmentation and granulation complete the moulding material process.
Both Dynea as a corporation and Dynea Pakistan Limited as a company have singled out Health, Safety and Environment as being a high priority issue. Dynea Pakistan is actively working to:
Protect employees and local surroundings from environment damages
Manage our resources and assume our share of the environmental responsibility in relation to customer as well as supplier.
