our patented line of energy saving protective coatings in India,” stated
Francesca Crolley, V.P. of Business Development for Industrial Nanotech, Inc.
“A.L. Batra Group of Industries is an aggressive, rapidly expanding, and
dynamic company in India, with over 3000 employees and sales over $106 million
dollars US in 2008. They are well established in multiple markets which will
benefit Nansulate’s rapid growth in the region including chemical manufacturing,
bottling of LPG, trading, retail, construction, financing, hospitality and medical
operations. The group is also extremely progressive in energy conservation and
efficiency. In fact, their state-of-the-art hospital and medical research centre
was awarded a National Award for Energy Conservation in 2007. India is a burgeoning
market and one in which we wanted to find a representative with a very strong
presence and the ability to promote the coatings in multiple markets at once.
We have found that with Angstrom Technology.”
The Indian economy is the second fastest growing economy in the world today,
with a growth rate of 7%-8%, behind only China. In the worst quarter of the
last two crisis years, immediately after the Lehman collapse, India's GDP growth
was 5.8 per cent. Global belief in India’s economy has resulted in continuing
Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). In 2008 – 2009 the FDI was $27.3 billion
in spite of a meltdown in the global financial markets. FDI to India increased
by an impressive 56% in July 2009 to $3.5 billion as against $2.6 billion in
the same month last year.
