In order to have an integrated manufacturing process of aluminium and aluminium alloy conductors, the company set up a state-of-the-art manufacturing plant at Silvassa in 2008. Since then, we have supplied over 128,000 km of conductors across the country and the globe. Today, we are expanding our reach in order to cater to the requirements of global players and provide them a product complying with all testing and quality requirements.
Our facility is well equipped with the latest technology to manufacture EC Grade aluminium/aluminium alloy wire rods and aluminium/aluminium alloy conductors (with or without steel reinforcement) up to 765 kV/800 kV. Our conductor manufacturing facility at Silvassa has a manufacturing capacity of 50,000 metric tonnes per annum (MTPA).
Over the year we have set up internal processes to cater to various requirements of customers and to have standardised procedures and methodology. Streamlining our workflow, we strictly adhere to our predefined processes to maintain high product quality standards as per customer requirements. Our manufacturing facility presently has the following features:
