Aditya Birla Chemicals
The Rs2,656-crore Aditya Birla Chemicals business is spread across India, Thailand and China.

In India, the chemicals business operates through four companies: Aditya Birla Nuvo, Grasim, Aditya Birla Chemicals (India) (formerly known as Bihar Caustic and Chemicals Limited) and Tanfac.

In Thailand, the business operates through two companies: Aditya Birla Chemicals (Thailand) Ltd and Thai Peroxide Company Ltd. Four separate chemical companies namely Thai Organic Chemicals Company, Thai Epoxy and Allied Products Company, Thai Polyphosphate & Chemicals Company and Thai Sulphites & Chemicals Company were merged together to form Aditya Birla Chemicals (Thailand) Ltd in 2006.

In China, the chemicals business operates through Aditya Birla Grasun Chemicals (Fangchenggang) Ltd.

The business covers six major product segments: chlor-alkalis, epoxy, fluorine chemicals, peroxides, phosphates and sulphites. These chemicals find application across a wide range of industries including food, food processing, personal consumer products, coating, civil engineering, wind energy, composites, electrical, pulp and paper, detergents, water treatment and metal treatment.

They are exported to 58 countries across the globe. The products are manufactured at ten units — four in India, five in Thailand and one in China. 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 products and processes according to requirements. Research and development facilities at various locations 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 such as 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, from the Japanese Institute of Plant Maintenance (JIPM) for the phosphates and sulphites divisions. In fact, the phosphates unit is the first sodium phosphate manufacturer in the world to have earned the award.
