India
Carbon Limited (ICL) provides
the right blend of people
& products to serve the
needs of the Aluminium, Steel
& other Carbon consuming
industries.
The Company,
established in 1961 was founded
by Mr. B. Himatsingka and
is a pioneer of the Calcining
industry having set up Asia's
first Calcination Plant at
Guwahati in 1962. ICL since
inception, has also been in
Technical & Financial
Collaboration with Oxbow
Calcining LLC (formerly Great Lakes
Carbon LLC) USA -World
Leaders in the Calcined Petroleum
Coke field. The Company then
went ahead and established
its second calcination plant
in 1969 at Budge Budge, West
Bengal.
India
Carbon's primary business
is the manufacture and supply
of high quality Calcined
Petroleum Coke (CPC) which
is the purest form of Carbon,
containing over 99.5% of it.
Along with the Calcined Coke
the Company also specializes
in the production of Electrode
Carbon Paste (ECP) and
Tamping Paste used
widely in the Ferro Alloys
and Allied industries and
also in the production of
Carbide. Both the Electrode
Carbon Paste as well as the
Tamping Paste are produced
from a mixture of different
carbonaceous material (CPC,
Calcined Anthracite Coal,
etc.) and Soft Pitch which
is used as a binder.
The primary
raw material used by ICL for
its operations is Raw Petroleum
Coke, frequently referred
to as RPC which is purchased
from Oil refineries all over
the world. RPC itself is produced
from the thermal cracking
of crude.
Some of
the primary customers for
ICL in the aluminium industry
are National Aluminium Company
Limited (NALCO), HINDALCO
Industries Limited (HINDALCO),
Bharat Aluminium Company Limited
(BALCO) and Madras Aluminium
Company Limited (MALCO). Some
of the major consumers in
the steel industry are Steel
Authority of India Limited
(SAIL), Tata Iron and Steel
Company Limited (TISCO) and
Essar Steel, whereas Graphite
India Limited and Hindustan
Electro Graphite Limited are
some of our customers from
the Graphite industry.
The Company
is constantly undertaking
activities with a view on
Research & Development,
thus enabling itself to maintain
its position on the leading
edge of technology.

|
|
|
|
|
| |
| |
A
unique combination of experience,
technology & teamwork goes into
every ton of Calcined petroleum
coke that ICL ship's to meet the
most demanding requirements. An
unerring focus on consistency, and
working continuously towards maximum
value creation for both it's customers
as well as it's shareholders are
principles ingrained in the Company.
ICL's ability to maintain Leadership
is based on it's commitment to Quality,
Long Term Relationships & Reliability
of supply.
Apart
from the production of an industrial
raw material such as CPC, in 1991
ICL's dynamic management team also
led the Company into the field of
floriculture through the establishment
of orchid farms in Guwahati, Assam.
The orchid flowers are currently
being sold primarily in the cities
of Bangalore, Mumbai, New Delhi
and Kolkata, but the Company is
looking ahead to new export possibilities.
ICL
is also one of the few Companies
to go beyond the required norms
for the betterment of the environment.
Conservation of energy and water
resources has forever been a key
objective for the Company. Moreover,
the installation of high end Gas
Cleaning Systems has ensured that
industrial pollution is kept to
a minimum and is causing no damage
to the environment. Few things would
prove the Company's care for flora
and fauna better than the fact that
they are growing some of the worlds
most beautiful and delicate flowers
on the very premises in which their
factory operates.
