Aditya Birla Chemicals,
the Rs 1600 crore (US$350 million) chemicals business
of the Aditya Birla Group, is based in India and Thailand.
The range of products includes chlor-alkali, epoxy, fluorine
chemicals, peroxides, phosphates and sulphites. These
chemicals find application across a wide range of industries
like food, textiles, electrical and electronics, composites,
leather, plastics and automobiles.
They are exported to 58 countries across the globe.
The products are manufactured at nine
units — four in India and five in Thailand. The chemicals
produced at these factories are recognised the world over
for their high quality.
The chlor-alkali unit in Thailand, for example, is the
only unit in the country to achieve the hallmark of quality
excellence by obtaining FDA approval. State-of-the-art
technology, stringent quality control and continuous innovative
improvements guarantee that the products are of global
standards.
Customer satisfaction is ensured through timely delivery
and customisation of processes according to requirements.
The research and development facilities at the divisions
have the latest equipment to determine the physical and
chemical parameters of newly-developed products and their
applications. Different divisions have been accredited
with certifications like ISO-9001:2000, ISO-14001, OSHAS-18001,
BS-8800 and TIS-18001.
Aditya Birla Chemicals has numerous awards
to its credit. These include the coveted TPM Excellence
Award-First category award, from the Japanese Institute
of Plant Maintenance (JIPM) for the phosphate and sulphite
divisions. In fact, the phosphate unit is the first
sodium phosphate manufacturer in the world to have earned
the award.
Aditya Birla Chemicals believes in caring
for the environment while creating value for its stakeholders.
It stretches beyond the stipulated norms to ensure a
safer environment for all. For example, in support of
its commitment to the customers and the community for
maintaining the green environment, the peroxides division
offers free technical services on hydrogen peroxide
applications relating to industrial and municipal waste
water and emission problems.
Safety is given pride of place at Aditya
Birla Chemicals. The devising of processes, the choice
of machinery, the selection of intermediates — all are
carefully weighed keeping the safety factor in mind.
Safety of our employees as well as that of end users
of our products is of paramount importance to us.
