The Associated Group of companies began operations in 1973. Our first manufacturing unit Associated Aluminium Industries (P) Ltd., an aluminium rolling mill, was set up at Taloja in the state of Maharashtra. After developing a loyal customer base in the aluminium market for over a decade, in 1987, we expanded our activities further by setting up a facility for the manufacture of aluminium security grills in the union territory of Daman. In addition, this unit also took up complete fabrication jobs which included setting up door and window frames. Today our brand Decogrille is the most widely used aluminium security grill throughout the country. We have also succeeded in exporting this product to neighbouring countries.

In 1996, we entered into a collaboration with M/s Focchi Spa, an Italian company which undertook curtain walling jobs. This part of our business, also situated at Daman, is equipped with the technology to design and execute a complete curtain-wall job, which involves a complete glass exterior for building structures.

In 1996, one of our group companies, Associated Profiles and Aluminium Ltd. made its Initial Public Offering in the capital markets. A unit, Hind Aluminium, was set up in Silvassa (union territory Dadra & Nagar Haveli) to manufacture aluminium alloy and electrical grade wire rods. This product is used by conductor manufacturers for power transmission.

In 1997, Associated Aluminium Industries (P) Ltd. also set up another rolling mill operation in Silvassa. In addition to the above manufacturing activities, our indenting division is also active in non-ferrous metals like aluminium, copper, zinc and nickel. We also import minerals like sulphur, rock phosphate and coal.
