 Our Kattur unit, located in Kattur Village of Trichy District, is about 30 km from Trichy and 6 km from Lalgudi railway station. In addition to sugar production, this unit also has facilities for co-generation of power, distillery and bio-compost. This unit was established in 1961 and is one of the earliest sugar factories to be set up in the state of Tamil Nadu. The sugar factory was initially commissioned with a crushing capacity of 1250 TCD. Subsequently the capacity was raised to1500 TCD during 1968-69. In 1974-75 the capacity was increased to 2000 TCD and by 1985-86 it achieved 2500 TCD. It was expanded to its current capacity of 2900 TCD during 1994-95, which demonstrates our commitment to continuous improvement.
