Two divisions. One company. The same standard.
We manufacture homogeneous high-speed steel ingots through our Electric Arc Furnace, and we distribute the full Powmex range as an authorised distributor across India. Both divisions answer to the same promise of quality.
High-speed steel, remelted.
We produce and supply homogeneous HSS ingots and billets made to industry standard chemistry. Our fully automated Electric Arc Furnace processes steel grades used in automotive, aviation, and defence. The market for remelted HSS is niche and growing. We meet it at scale.

Authorised distributor of Powmex Steels.
We have held the nationwide authorised distributorship for Powmex Steels, a division of Graphite India Limited, since the company's earliest years. We supply the full Powmex size range of high-speed steel and alloy tool steel across India.
