Alumina refining
Alumina produced at our Utkal (in Rayagada district of Odisha), Renukoot, Muri and Belagavi refineries is primarily utilised in the manufacturing of aluminium for our internal operations. Any excess alumina is sold to third parties as either standard alumina or specialty alumina. Our specialty alumina and hydrates have been developed by a dedicated research and development team at Belagavi. As a mines-to-market manufacturer, alumina refining is a critical step in Hindalco’s value chain as it enables us to maintain the quality of our products.

Aluminium smelting
Our state-of-the-art aluminium smelters have a combined annual capacity of around 1.3 million tonnes of primary aluminium. We manufacture high-quality primary aluminium in the form of ingots, billets and wire rods which are used in a variety of industrial settings.

Aluminium downstream
As part of our downstream aluminium operations, we manufacture flat-rolled products, extrusions, foil, and packaging. We are committed to continue expanding our downstream value-added portfolio to serve the diverse needs of the market, especially high-growth segments such as electric vehicles, consumer durables, packaging, and batteries.

Copper smelting
Our copper division, Birla Copper, is located in Dahej, Gujarat. It is home to one of the largest single-location copper smelters in the world, complete with integrated port facilities and the necessary logistical capabilities to efficiently meet the transportation needs of customers. Aside from our copper smelter, our Dahej facility comprises a captive power plant, oxygen plants, by-product plants, utilities, and a captive jetty. Our precious metals recovery plant extracts gold, silver, and selenium generated from the copper smelting process for sale in the market. In 2021, we expanded our copper downstream business by acquiring a 225,000-tonne continuous cast rod facility in Asoj, Gujarat.
