Four Ways
To Work
With Us.
Four monetisation paths stacked on the same IP base: consulting fees → licensing royalties → LSTK execution margin → R&D-backed equity participation.
Pick the engagement that fits your project. All paths start with a scoping call within 5 working days.
Process
Consulting
Feasibility, environmental compliance, technology audits, debottlenecking, plant performance reviews.

Licensing
Licence Paragon IP into your own build. Performance guarantees included as standard. Tech-data packages issued under NDA.
Licensable IP catalogue
- Gas-route sulphonation IP
- 90% sulphonation route (no spent acid)
- Exclusive neutralization process (87% LABSA paste vs market 38–40% / 70%)
- Exclusive low-temperature drying (97.5% AM, <1% moisture, <25 Klett)
- Novel sulphur processing platform
- Sulphated substrate processing
Three commercial models
Most common structure. Fixed upfront technology fee + per-unit royalty.
For early-stage licensees. Performance guarantee still included as standard.
For strategic partnerships. Paragon invests capital alongside IP deployment.
R&D / Process
Innovation
We invest our own capital in invention; clients build the capacity.
Active programmes (Pipeline — not yet commercial)
-
Biogas → Surfactants
Methane and CO₂ from organic-waste biogas converted into surfactant intermediates. Drop-in compatible with deployed gas-route sulphonation IP. Targets 2030 fossil-feedstock-displacement commitments.
-
Algae → Cooking Oil + Surfactants (Co-product Process)
Single algal feedstock yielding food-grade cooking oil and surfactant intermediates as co-products. Addresses India's >$15bn edible-oil import dependency.
-
Concentrated FHPC Formulations (Add-Water Architecture)
Active chemistry shipped concentrated; water added at point of use. 5–10× freight efficiency, 5–10× plastic reduction, last-mile economics rewritten.
Engineering culture
- Lab-to-pilot-to-plant continuity — no gap between bench and commercial scale
- Patent-grade documentation discipline across all programmes
- Direct founder access — Mr. Ashok Mahindru engaged at technical level
- AI-accelerated R&D across all three pipeline programmes
Joint development agreement. Paragon invests process capital. Partner builds and operates the plant. IP ownership and royalty structure agreed upfront.
