Asia Pacific Quality Award

LANXESS India received the “Quest for Excellence Award” for implementing holistic and comprehensive quality systems at its manufacturing site in Nagda, Madhya Pradesh. The award was presented to Mr. Neelanjan Banerjee, Senior Executive Director and Senior Vice President of LANXESS India, at the International Asia Pacific Quality Awards (IAPQA) event, which was organized by the Asia Pacific Quality Organization (APQO) and held in Kathmandu, Nepal.

The APQO is a non-profit organization that serves as an umbrella group that brings together all of the leading quality professional societies from countries that border on the Pacific Ocean or are considered Asian / Pacific Rim nations. Only companies which had already won a national quality award in its home country and which had passed the rigorous final screening by the IAPQA Council are eligible for the IAPQA awards. The awards selection criteria are: leadership, strategic planning, customer and market focus, measurement, analysis and knowledge management, human resource focus and process management.

Prior to this award, LANXESS India had won the IMC Ramakrishna Bajaj National Quality award, which was organized by the Indian Merchant Chambers in March 2010.

Expressing his pleasure on the achievement, Banerjee said, “We would like to thank the Asia Pacific Quality Organization for honoring us with this award. It is recognition of the efforts of all employees of the Business Unit Advanced Industrial Intermediates (AII) in India. We are happy that our efforts have borne fruit and the award will certainly motivate us to do even better in the future.”

Dr. Joerg Strassburger, Managing Director and Country Representative of LANXESS India, added, “We at LANXESS are delighted that the Nagda site has been conferred such a prestigious award. LANXESS continuously strives to enhance our products and processes through innovation so as to drive profitable growth for the company while establishing best practices for the chemical industry. This award recognizes our commitment to excellence in quality which is one of our key focus areas.”
