The Genesis of NCL Industries Limited can be traced to the Golden Era of entrepreneurial development in Andhra Pradesh (pre-bifurcation) of the early 1980's. This period marked the emergence of a number of individual entrepreneurs whose fledgling enterprises evolved into well-established industrial groups.Nagarjuna Cement Limited, as the Company was known then, established a mini cement plant at Mattapalli in Nalgonda (now Suryapet) District to augment the supply of scarce cement with relatively low investment. This turned out to be a resounding success. The cement produced under the brand name ‘Nagarjuna' established a premium image in the coastal districts of Andhra Pradesh. The company expanded the capacity of the cement plant in stages. Starting with a modest capacity of 200 TPD, the company has now grown to a level of >8000 TPD, spread over two locations.The product range of Cement Division includes Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC), Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) and Special Cement for manufacture of Railway Sleepers.NCL also has a Ready Mix Concrete Division, which supplies ready mix concrete of dependable quality, using ‘Nagarjuna' cement, and ensuring reliable quality. The total number of RMC units now stands at four - two each in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, catering to markets adjacent to the cities of Hyderabad and Visakhapatnam.Cement to Building Materials – a natural progressionThe Founder of the Group was the first to recognise that cement is only one component of a building or structure. The dream of giving the Group a distinct image as a building materials group started taking shape in the early 1990's. The first step in realising this dream was setting up a Plant to manufacture cement bonded particle Boards to be used as partitions, roofs and panels. This was started in collaboration with Bison Werke of Germany.Email: digital@nclind.com
