AVON ORGANICS -The only diketene manufacturer

It is said that for a commendable success story, the interest should lie in the future, as that is where one spends most of the time. A keen insight and a well-planned development process saw AOL discover the opportunity in the production of Diketene - the basic unit for hundreds of derivatives in pesticides, chemicals, pharmaceuticals and dyestuffs. A highly classified technology, it has been sourced from Shanghai Peng Pu Chemical Works, China, and Xytel Technology Partnership, USA, and now rests in the hands of a few chosen manufacturers across the globe.
FACILITY
The company, with its immense infrastructure framework has introduced modifications to the Chinese technology and has a current production of 3000 tonnes per annum against an installed capacity of 2000 tonnes per annum. A sprawling facility of 21 acres, the plant is situated 60 kilometres from Hyderabad. The locale is ideal due to its easy connectivity made possible by the well-traversed National Highway # 9 that links Hyderabad with Mumbai.

HISTORY

Being in the business of manufacturing machinery for chemical, bulk drug and resin plants proved to be a head start to two visionary entrepreneurs who shared the dream of constructing and operating their own high-tech chemical plant. The two entrepreneurs, Mr. P R Agarwal, Mr. Rajesh Agarwal along with late Dr G S Sidhu, 'combined' their strengths to set up Avon Organics Limited (AOL) with an objective to serve worldwide markets with high value-added industrial products for the pharmaceuticals, agro and dyestuff & pigment industries. The company's main focus is on producing fine chemicals for these industries.
The transition from a machinery manufacturer to a full-fledged chemical manufacturer saw the company foraying into the highly technology-intensive area of Diketene and its derivatives. Hence began an era of excellence beyond compare in the manufacture of chemicals as initiated and benchmarked by AOL.The year 1996 saw the establishment and successful commissioning of AOL's first grass root Diketene plant. Diligently run and controlled by a dedicated 300-strong team comprising of managers, engineers, chemists, supervisors and workmen, each hand-picked for their expertise, the plant has been garnering accolades and achievements on a regular basis.The company's growth pinnacled when it doubled its production capacity by commissioning an additional 1000 TPA unit as part of its second phase in 1998.
Hyderabad, a city where the chemical industry has carved a comfortable niche for itself, was the unanimous choice of the promoters to locate the company. A prominent marquee among the prominent "Profit Making Companies" in India, AOL has been on a steady and unabated upward journey. Uncompromising quality standards, intelligent innovations that redefine manufacturing and a commitment to the customer needs has been their mantra for success. An ISO 9000 certification by the Lloyds Register Quality Assurance (LRQA) highlighted the company's quality standards and instills a deserving sense of confidence in the elaborate quality control procedures followed in the plant.
