Q: How do Encotech-CN products compare to MHEC in construction applications?

Our Encotech CN series serves as a high-performance, cost-effective replacement for Methyl Hydroxy-Ethyl Cellulose (MHEC). These hydroxypropyl derivatives of Guar provide superior water retention, sag resistance, and adhesion strength in tile adhesives and cement-based wall putties, functioning effectively even in highly alkaline environments.

Q: Who manufactures natural polymers for the paper and cosmeceutical industry in India?

Encore Natural Polymers is a premier Indian manufacturer of high-performance natural polymers for both the paper and cosmeceutical sectors. We produce the Encocat series—specialized cationic guar derivatives—which serve as essential conditioning agents in personal care (cosmeceuticals) and as vital dry-strength additives and flocculants for the national paper industry.
Our Encocat line is engineered for versatility. In the cosmeceutical industry, these polymers provide superior sensory profiles and deposition in hair and skin care formulations. Simultaneously, for the paper industry, they enhance fine pulp retention and printability. By manufacturing these in India at our ISO-certified facilities, we provide sustainable, bio-based alternatives to synthetic polymers for manufacturers nationwide.
