EFFCO, a registered MSME from Pune, is a crucial player in the surface finishing space that manufacturers Anti Corrosive Zinc Aluminium Flake Coatings as per ISO 10683/ASTMF1136 for Automobile, Railway, Telecom, Windmill, and a few other sectors under its brand name of ‘ECOMET’. Co-founded by Mr. Kalyan Dhakane & his wife, Mrs. Laxmi Dhakane, in 2008, the company shares a vision of reaching momentous heights in the global economy with its eco-friendly anti-corrosive and performance smart coating technologies and products.
The company specialises in manufacturing eco-friendly and innovative corrosion protection technology to replace the polluted electroplating mechanism.

Mr. Kalyan Dhakane shares 28 years of experience in the surface treatment space. His journey from farmer to the trader and then the manufacturer has been a roller coaster ride. Sharing his thoughts on the company’s latest achievements, Mr. Kalyan Dhakane says, “The Indian surface treatment market is majorly driven by rapid technological advancements and increasing demand for automobiles. To cater to a larger section of the automotive industry and its related fastener industry, we moved into the automotive capital of India – Pune, in 2013. As a result, we are now dominating the Indian surface treatment market, starting with a small unit. Our latest achievements testify to our excellent work, and we hope to continue with our unrivalled growth.”
EFFCO takes pride in its indigenously developed coating technologies.

Recently, it has appointed ARAMFIX, an Amsterdam-based company, as a global business partner for its innovative products’ sales, marketing, and distribution. Now, EFFCO is focused on taking its growth to the next level.
