Profile
Jamshedpur Injection Powder (Jamipol), a joint venture company promoted by Tata Steel, SKW Stahl Metallurgie AG (Germany) and Tai Industries (Bhutan), is involved in the production and marketing of de-sulphurising compounds (DCs). Used in the external de-sulphurisation of hot metal, DCs are an essential raw material in the production of low-sulphur, high-quality steels that meet international standards.

The setting up of the Jamipol plant was a significant landmark in the Indian steel industry, making available a high-tech product essential to the steel-making process indigenously. Located in Jamshedpur, the plant was constructed at a cost of Rs 20 crore. It has a production capacity of 15,000 tonnes per annum (tpa) of DC on a single-shift operation which can be increased to 40,000 tpa.

Under an exclusive licence and know-how agreement with SKW Stahl-Technik GmbH, Jamipol utilises state-of-art technology to produce DCs of the highest quality. The company is in the process of setting-up a second unit of similar capacity at Toranagallu in Karnataka, which is scheduled to commence operations in early 2006.
