5 Reasons to consider TSML among the best Ferro chrome manufacturers in India

 

Keeping in pace with the exponential growth of steel industry, there is a rapid rise of Ferro chrome manufacturers in India. The staggering growth of Ferro chrome plants has significantly contributed to earning India the 2nd lead position in steel production and 3rd in Ferrochrome production.

While India’s Ferro chrome production journey has been impressive and going stronger, it is also undeniable that the market is bustling with many average makers hindering the production of quality steel. This is because such average manufacturers lack systematic production facilities and quality checking which leads to inferior Ferro chrome with high carbon content, unsuitable for steel production. 

So let’s find out what Ferro chrome is:

Ferro chrome (Fe-Cr) is an alloy of 50% iron (Fe) and 70% chromium (Cr). The production process involves carbothermic reduction of iron, magnesium, and chromium oxide under high temperatures of the furnace producing around 2800 degrees C heat. 

Contributing to India’s glorious journey of becoming one of the leading producers of Ferro chrome is TATA Steel Mining Limited (TSML). A pioneering subsidiary of TATA Steel, TSML proudly spearheads the nation’s overall output of Ferro chrome under its integrated facility. Let’s decode the compelling factors that made TSML an undisputed leader in Ferro chrome manufacturing.
