History of Apt Packaging Ltd.

Anil Chemicals Limited [ACLs] was incorporated on 24th June, 1980 as a Private Limited Comp. under the name of Anil Chemicals Private Limited with the Registrar of Companies, Maharashtra at Bombay.

ACL is engaged in the manufacturing of Prilled Ammonium Nitrate, Ammonium Nitrate -Fuel Oil mixed [ANFOs]/ Emulsified Bulk Explosives & Waterproofing Compounds with plants at Chikalthana [M.S.s], Panoli [Guj.s] , Waidhan[M.P.s] & Nandrabad [M.S.s].

Ammonium Nitrate Division ACL has been engaged in the manufacturing of Prilled Ammonium Nitrate at Chikalthana, Aurangabad since 1983. The plant was set up with technical assistance from PDIL, Sindri. The plant manufactures chemically coated free flowing, low density/high density, explosive grade Pried Ammonium Nitrate. In 1992-93, ACL set up another plant to make Granular & Lumps Ammonium Nitrate at Panoli, Gujarat based on Ammonium Nitrate Melt from GNFC, Bharuch. With this ACL has been able to offer complete range of Ammonium Nitrate to its customers.

The Comp. has established itself as a major supplier of various grades of ammonium nitrate & enjoys market Share of more than 30% in the country today. ACL major customers includes ACC, Sesa Goa, Mineral Ore Exploration Cos.etc.

Bulk Explosive Division As a part of forward integration programme, ACL went into manufacture of Ammonium Nitrate-Fuel Oil [ANFOs] bulk explosives in 1986-87 at Waidhan, Dist.Sidhi, [M.P.s] for regular supply of ANFO explosives to Northern Coal-fields Ltd., subsidiary of Coal India Limited [CILs]. ANFO explosives are the latest generation explosives used for mining & have been fast replacing conventional explosives such as cartridge explosives etc. due to various inherent advantages of product such as ease of handling, safe in nature, cost effectiveness, etc. The Company has a long-term contract with CIL for supply of ANFO explosives. ACL also has facilities at the same plant for making Emulsion Matrix which is used in making Emulsified ANFO Explosives.

ACL intends to set up similar support plant at Jharsugda, Orissa for supply of ANFO Explosives to other subsidiaries of Coal India Limited. The expenditure for plant will be met through internal accruals.

Water Proofing Division
