Dura Chemical Corporation was founded in India in 1948 as a supplier of raw materials for the coatings, plastics, rubber, and cosmetics industries. In 1961, the company commenced production of additives for the paint, printing ink, and PVC industries. Over the next five decades, Dura emerged as a leader in the production of metal organics including metal driers, PVC heat stabilizers and additives for the coatings, UPR, polyurethane, lubrication, and fuel industries.

In 2006, we acquired the North American metal carboxylate and anti-skinning business of a major supplier; this considerably broadened our production and sales footprint, adding warehouses and offices from Mexico to Canada. 

Today, Dura has research, development, and manufacturing plants in India, a lab and production arm in the USA, and supply capabilities worldwide. Since 1994, we have been doing business in the USA as Dura Chemicals Inc., based in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Ultimately, Dura Chemicals distinguishes itself by blending high quality products with unrivaled customer sales support and service. A saying you will often hear at Dura is "no one has ever found a substitute for a customer"​; we are committed to understanding our customers and their businesses, and providing value above and beyond simply meeting their needs.
