Ducol Organics & Colours Limited, a rapidly growing chemical manufacturing company with over three decades of industry presence, today announced a strategic partnership with Malaysia-based Qualibit Chemicals & ndustries Sdn. Bhd. to expand its waterproofing and construction chemicals business across Southeast Asia. The collaboration will see Ducol supply waterproofing systems manufactured through its subsidiary Bitumag to Qualibit’s established ASEAN manufacturing and market network, with scope to extend the partnership to products and capabilities from future strategic acquisitions in waterproofing and construction chemicals sector, subject to mutual alignment. The partnership aims to strengthen Ducol’s international footprint, improve manufacturing utilisation, and create a scalable export platform aligned with the company’s long-term growth strategy. Under the partnership, Ducol will allocate up to 20 percent of its chemicals capacity in Bitumag for distribution in the Malaysian market through Qualibit’s regional network, subject to operational planning and market requirements. The collaboration is expected to contribute to incremental export-driven growth for Ducol. Reinforced by Polybit, the group’s established trading and distribution arm with a strong presence across Southeast Asia, Qualibit Chemicals & ndustries brings an integrated manufacturing and market execution platform to the partnership. Qualibit Chemicals & Industries brings an established operating footprint across Southeast Asia, supported by ISO-certified quality systems, in-house laboratory capabilities, and a strong specification-driven sales model across infrastructure, commercial, and industrial projects. Through its technical execution approach and applicator engagement network, Qualibit is expected to support faster market access, approvals, and customer adoption in the region. Qualibit’s decision to collaborate with Ducol reflects a strong alignment built over years of operational engagement between the two groups. Polybit, the trading and distribution arm of the same group, has been sourcing materials from Bitumag for over five years, establishing a working relationship grounded in product performance, supply consistency, and execution reliability. The progression to a direct collaboration with Qualibit represents a natural evolution of this partnership, further strengthening the strategic alignment between Ducol’s manufacturing capabilities and the group’s established regional market presence.
