LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

 

HISTORY

Jointly promoted by Greaves Cotton & Company and Morganite Crucible, UK, Greaves Morganite Crucible, a Thapar group company, was incorporated in Jan.'86. Greaves was marketing Morganite's crucibles for over three decades in India, when it started manufacturing 600 tpa silicon carbide crucibles using resin bonded technology at Waluj, Aurangabad in 1987. It went public in Aug.'87. The British collaborator holds a 28% stake in the company. 


 The company's collaborator, Morganite Crucibles, is engaged in this business for the past 100 years. Crucibles are used as containers for melting and holding molten metal. The company which manufactures resin-bonded silicon carbide crucibles, caters to the non-ferrous metal industry. 

 
 In Oct.'94, the company obtained ISO 9002 certification from Bureau Veritas Quality International (BVQI). It exports to Egypt, Srilanka and Nepal through its concessionaires. 

 
 Expansion programme for manufacturing of Clay Graphite Crucibles had been completed and commercial production started on February 2001 and export of products had also commenced. In 2001-02 the company had manufactured 80.15 MT of Clay Graphite Crucibles.

 

WEB DETAILS ATTACHED

 

OPERATIONS 
 
 During the financial year, the turnover was Rs 194.700 Millions as compared to Rs 189.000 Millions. 

 
 A capital expenditure of Rs 60.000 Millions for erection and commissioning of expansion of existing plant for increasing the total production to 2500 MT is under implementation. The Company will further require fund for the import of capital goods. The project is expected to be commissioned by October 2008. 

 
 To minimize the impact of the increase in the price of raw material and to maintain the best quality, the Company has decided to involve the suppliers which are the established supplier to the Company's parent company production facility at UK. This will ensure maintenance of quality standard and better product performance in the market.
