The
Madras Aluminium Company Ltd. (MALCO) was established
in 1965 at Mettur Dam, near the city of Salem, Tamil Nadu in collaboration
with Montecatine of Italy. MALCO is the only integrated primary
Aluminium Metal complex in the entire South India with its own captive
mining, refining, smelting and power generation operations.
MALCO was taken over by the Sterlite group in 1995
and the new management has re-written the success story of MALCO.
MALCO has a state-of-the-art, coal-based Captive
Power Plant at the same location. Its captive Bauxite Mines are
located within the nearby ranges of Yercaud, Kolli and Palani in
Tamil Nadu.
MALCO constantly seeks way to improve efficiency
and output.
