National aluminium company ltd. [nalco] is considered to be a turning point in the history of indian aluminium industry. In a major leap forward, nalco has not only addressed the need for self-sufficiency in aluminium, but also given the country a technological edge in producing this strategic metal to the best of world standards. Nalco was incorporated in 1981 in the public sector, to exploit a part of the large deposits of bauxite discovered in the east coast.
Nalco has set up a 50,000 mt per annum rolled products unit, integrated with the smelter plant at angul, for production of aluminium cold rolled sheets and coils from continuous caster route, based on the advanced technology of fata hunter, italy.
