Abhay Lodha - Steel Flagship



According to Abhay Lodha Steel is our flagship businesses. With a combined capacity of 1,000,000 tons of iron and steel products and 4 plants spread across all the premier iron ore producing regions, we are rapidly growing player in this key sector.

Our diverse range and multiple locations allow us to provide unparalleled customer service. Our manufacturing processes are inherently flexible, allowing us to respond quickly to customer needs and provide them with products that they need.

Semi Finished Steels
Billets/Blooms
In TopWorth Group of Companies Sponge Iron, Mild Steel Scrap and other alloying elements such as Carbon, Manganese and Silicon are melted in the Electric Furnaces to get the molten steel of the desired composition which is then cast into square cross-section semi-finished steel bars called as Billets in a Continuous Casting Machine (CCM) . These Billets are then rolled in the Rolling Mills at a temperature above 1000 Deg C to make rolled products such as Beams and Channels, Angles, Rounds, Squares and TMT Bars. The Steel Melt Shop (Billet Plant) comprises of Induction Furnaces equipped with Continuous Casting Machine (CCM) for manufacture of Steel Billets/ Blloms ranging from 100 Sq.mm to 250 Sq.mm cross section. An expansion of the steel making capacity is on and the wok is under progress.

Sponge Iron
The metallic Iron obtained from Iron Ore or Iron Ore pellets by direct reduction in Coal based Rotary Kilns is called as Sponge Iron. The name sponge Iron comes due to the porous structure of the reduced Sponge Iron due to removal of oxygen from the Iron Ore (Hematite) structure, when observed through the microscope. The Sponge Iron along with MS Scrap is charged into the Melting Furnaces to get the Steel Billets.

As part of the Topworth Group, growth is a constant at all our plants. We have invested heavily in capacity expansion and a lot of new capacity is projected to go online by 2013, by 2014 we will have quadrupled our current production capacity and will be capable of producing over 2.5 MT of Steel and Steel products.
