Background
Chettinad Cement was established in 1962 and operates seven manufacturing units across India.[1]
The company started its first manufacturing facility in Puliyur, Karur District, Tamil Nadu, India, with wet process cement plant of capacity of 0.4 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) in April 1968.[2][3][4] The plant was modernised into dry process plant to a capacity of 0.8 mtpa with a kiln capacity of 2000 tonnes per day (tpd) commissioned with modern vertical roller mills for fuel & limestone grinding in 1989.[4] The plant capacity was further increased to 1.2 mtpa cement in 2000. A coal based 15 MW capacity Captive Power Plant was commissioned during Feb-2008 at Puliyur Works.[4] The cement production capacity increased to 1.37 mtpa in 2009–10 as a result of modernizing the manufacturing facility and installing an additional grinding unit.[3]
