Jindal Aluminium, the largest producer of aluminium extruded products in India, has completed two years since the commencement of its Bhiwadi operations. The company concluded an Rs 100 crore acquisition of Indo Alusys Industries Bhiwadi assets and announced the successful commencement of production in January 2022.
Over the last two years, Jindal Aluminium has transformed the 102,000 sq m campus into a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility with another investment of approximately Rs 300 crore. It utilises cutting-edge production techniques to ensure efficiency and precision throughout its operations.
This valuable acquisition has increased the company’s total extrusion capacity by 40 per cent to 150,000 TPA. Commencing the newly acquired plant's production at 500 tonnes per month, the company has managed an impressive turnaround of this unit, now producing 2500 tonnes of engineered Aluminium per month at Bhiwadi. It has significantly enhanced the plant's operations by adding a new foundry, extrusion presses, heat treatment, and surface treatment facilities, including anodising and powder-coating. It has undertaken multiple other infrastructure developments to service its customers, employees, and the local ecosystem.
