Success in Nylon-6

HEADNOTE

Thai Baroda Industries Ltd, a relatively new but highly successful producer of nylon-6 tire-cord fabrics, is looking

to increase output and expand into new markets.

From Caprolactam to Dipped Tire-Cord Fabrics

Thai Baroda Industries Ltd. began production of high-tenacity nylon-6 yam and cord fabrics in January 1995 at its state-of-the-art US$130 million plant at the Map-Ta-Phut industrial estate, Amphur Muang, in Thailand's Rayong province.

Using the latest technology and modern machinery, the facility is Thailand's only tire-cord plant that is fully integrated from polymerization through to dipping stages.

A member of the Nylon-6 Promotional Group (NPG-6), Thai Baroda is a technology-based, marketdriven company with an annual capacity of 9,000 tons of dipped tirecord fabrics. Its strategy is to be the preferred supplier of tire-reinforcing material in South Asia, South East Asia and the Asia Pacific region.
