Archean's Kutch unit to start soon

Mumbai : On its way to set up a sulphate of potash and industrial grade salt plant in Kutch, Archean Chemical Industries Pvt. Ltd. is likely to commission the same soon. Being set up at an initial investment of Rs 600 crore, the sulphate of potash plant, a major fertilizer input, will carry a capacity of 100,000 tonnes.

While the main intention of setting up the plant is to produce sulphate of potash, the plant will also result in industrial grade or IP grade salt as a pre-product. The Gujarat government has allotted us around 60,000 acres for the plant in the Greater Rann of Kutch," stated a company official on conditions of anonymity.
