About us
Trust forever. Smile forever.
Two principals have guided the way we make chemistry since inception: the trust a manufacturer places in a product that performs consistently, batch after batch, and the confidence that comes from panels meeting expectations for emissions, strength and cost.
A first for Indian manufacturing
E0 / E1
The first Indian company to introduce formaldehyde scavenger technology built on research, helping manufacturers meet E0 and E1 emission standards with complete efficiency.
Who we are
Patina Chemicals is a Kolkata-based specialty additive and adhesive manufacturer for the wood-based composite industry, serving manufacturers across nations. We believe a wood panel’s performance is decided in the chemistry — long before it leaves the press.
From bio-based adhesives that cut petrochemical dependence, to nano-particle formaldehyde scavengers, fire-retardants and botanical wood protection, our portfolio now spans across nine product categories. Each one was developed to solve a specific problem on the panel line — not to fill a catalogue — so it earns its place in a formulation on results, not novelty.
Our range is engineered to help manufacturers navigate tighter regulations, rising input costs and growing demand for sustainable products, without compromising performance.
We understand real production challenges and engineer additives that fit seamlessly into existing manufacturing lines, improving efficiency without adding complexity.
To empower plywood and engineered wood manufacturers with innovative additives and adhesive solutions that improve manufacturing performance, enhance product quality, and advance sustainable growth through scientific innovation, technical expertise and trusted partnerships.
To emerge as the most trusted innovation partner in specialty additives and adhesives for the wood panel industry — transforming manufacturing through smarter chemistry, sustainable innovation and uncompromising performance.
Why Patina
Additive chemistry, and the people who tune it.
We are not just a drum of chemistry. We are a partner on the plant floor — matching the right grade to your line and staying with you through the trial.
Chemistry built for the line
Every solution is shaped by real manufacturing challenges — not a laboratory bench — and tuned to deliver dependable results under actual plant conditions.
Total Quality Management
Consistency batch to batch. Quality and customer focus have been our priority since day one.
Lower cost per panel
Products that stretch resin, improve spread and bring down glue-line cost without losing bond strength.
Compliance-ready emissions
Formaldehyde scavengers that move amino and phenolic resin systems toward E1 / E0 emission targets.
Dependable supply
Repeatable, on-time delivery of the products to plants across India.
Hands-on technical support
On-site troubleshooting for glue-line, curing and emission challenges — backed by practical chemistry and process guidance that delivers consistent results.
