ABOUT US
About Us:
This division produces iron and steel products for catering to the need of automobile, auto component,
Transmission Line tower, Seamless tube & Flange manufacturers.
The product range includes HR & CR Sheets and coils, bars & Rods apart from Carbon & Alloy Steel.
The plant was established in collaboration with the China Shougang International Trade & Engineering Corporation and is located on a 1200 acre land at Raipur in Chhattisgarh, the Steel belt of the country.
It has a 15 km long internal railway siding.
The availability of skilled labour and proximity to raw materials like iron ore and thermal coal are cost competitive advantages. The sales are spread across the country. Currently the entire requirement of thermal coal is met through captive coal mines.
The plant has an installed capacity for producing 600,000 TPA of pig iron, 480,000 TPA of sinter and 300,000 TPA of steel billets. It is in the process of commissioning Wire Rod and Bar Mill of 450,000 TPA capacity.
This plant is equipped with a non recovery type coke oven plant of 100,000 TPA capacity with stamp charging system. The blast furnace has a capacity to produce to 600,000 TPA of basic grade as well as foundry grade high quality pig iron.
The steel melt shop at the plant produces steel billets of special alloy steel, free cutting, ball bearing, high tensile steel for transmission towers and special steel round billets for seamless pipe manufacture.
Steel plant at Raipur also has 2 rotary kilns for manufacturing sponge iron having capacity of 255,000 TPA with a captive generation power plant.
The plant has set up captive power plants which include a waste heat recovery based 15.5 MW power plant; the company has power generation capacity of 45 MW and is in the process of adding further capacity.
