    Archean Chemical Industries Limited IPO Products :

    • Bromine:

      Bromine is the only non-metallic element that is a liquid at standard conditions. Bromine is widely distributed in nature but in relatively small amounts, mainly as soluble salts. The company’s bromine and bromine-based business are used in a broad range of end-use industries and have applications in the pharmaceuticals, fumigants, agrochemicals, water treatment, mercury control, flame retardants, oil & gas, and additives segments of the chemicals industry. The company is the largest exporter of Bromine from India by volume in Fiscal 2021. In the three months ended June 30, 2022 and in Fiscal 2022, Fiscal 2021 and Fiscal 2020, it exported 34.88%, 44.88%, 46.10% and 39.79%, respectively, of its bromine production abroad, mainly to China

    • Industrial Salt:

      Industrial salt is the principal material in chlorine and caustic soda production (together, known as chloralkali) and is widely used in the chemical and food and beverage industries. Chlorine finds end-uses in vinyl, phosgene, chloromethanes, chlorinated C3, water treatment, synthesis HCI, bleach, and other organic and inorganic chemical material. Caustic soda finds end-uses in alumina, paper and pulp, soap and detergents, textiles, water treatment, bleach, and other organic and inorganic chemical material. The company was the largest exporter of industrial salt in India with exports of 2.7 million MT in Fiscal 2021. In the three months ended June 30, 2022 and in Fiscal 2022, Fiscal 2021 and Fiscal 2020, the company exported 100% of its industrial salt production, primarily to customers in Japan and China.

    • Sulphate of Potash:

      Sulphate of potash, also known as potassium sulphate, is a high-end, specialty fertilizer for chlorine-sensitive crops. It is one of the most popular forms of low chloride potash, largely due to its high 50-52% K2O content, which contains about 50% of plant food. This stimulates the growth of strong stems and provides disease resistance to crops and plants by promoting the thickness of the outer cell walls. Further, sulphate of potash can reduce moisture loss from growing plants, thereby providing drought resistance, and has been proven to improve yield, nutritional value, colour, flavour, and storing quality of fruits and vegetables. Hence, the primary end-use industries for the company’s sulphate of potash include the agrochemicals industry, which uses its product for the manufacture of fertilizer.
