February 2017 – Aero India 2017 showcased the best of the global aerospace industry. Pexa and Socomore exhibited there together and met a number of customers and partners. Pexa is the leading distributor of aerospace surface coating and treatment chemicals, they have been present in India with representation in Bangalore since 2015. Socomore is a global leader in the manufacture of aerospace surface treatment products. Its Aeroglaze, Socogel and Socosurf products are approved and used by the major aerospace design authorities.

Pexa is marketing the Socomore range for India's wide range of aerospace programmes as part of a long standing and successful relationship.

Speaking on the occasion, Jaganathan PK, Technical Sales Manager, Pexa Ltd, said “We have a great partnership with Socomore, already we have introduced their game changing Satwipes to replace old fashioned solvent degreasing and we see many opportunities to help our customers in India to improve their surface treatment and coatings processes.”

In 2015, Pexa invested in developing a leading position in the rapidly expanding Indian market and teamed up with two of their partners in the Aerochemicals Alliance: Socomore, a manufacturer of surface treatment products, and Sherwin Inc, a manufacturer of NDT products. All 3 companies are leaders in their field and work closely together to develop synergies which benefit their customers. Pexa is the leader of the project in India and has opened a new sales office in Bangalore in order to provide an excellent level of local service to customers in India. Customers can benefit from Pexa’s close association with surface finishing product manufacturers and the support services for the leading brands that they distribute.

Pexa is engaged in supporting companies developing new manufacturing sites under the “Make in India” banner and is hoping to develop its own production facilities in India to support appropriate local product manufacturing.
