JK Lakshmi Cement (JKLAKSHMI) in its 25th year of existence has grown to become the preferred choice of many a customer on account of its performance, consistency and quality of cement. Part of the diverse JK group of companies, it was established in the year 1982. The state-of-the-art manufacturing plants in the Sirohi district of Rajasthan have a capacity of more than 3.5 million tons. Using the latest technology from Blue Circle Industries and modern equipment from Fuller International of USA, the company has gone from strength to strength. It is the first gray cement producer in northern India to be awarded an ISO 9002 certificate and be accredited by NABL (Department of Science & Technology, Government of India) for its Lab Quality Management systems. Plaster of paris and ready mix concrete are the other products manufactured.
The expansion plans to increase capacity would entail a capital outlay of Rs 10 billion over a period of four years. The capacity at the existing plant would increase to 5 millions tons per annum by 2008-2009. At present, the company has five ready-mix concrete (RMC) units and is planning to set up seven more such units, each with an approximate capacity of 60 cubic meters per hour, in Jaipur, Noida, Gurgaon, Mohali, Surat, Baroda and Ahmedabad. A new plant is to be set up in Chattisgarh with a capacity of 2.5 million tons of cement per annum. The recently commissioned 36 MW captive power plant will contribute significantly in reducing power cost. An integral part of major projects like IGNP and Sardar Sarovar Dam, the company has a wide network of about 1,500 dealers spread across the states of Rajasthan, Gujarat, Delhi, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Uttaranchal, Punjab, Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and Mumbai.
