ABSTRACT

Tata Chemicals Limited (TCL) is a global company with interests in businesses that focus on living, industry, and farm essentials (LIFE). The story of the company is about harnessing the fruits of science for goals that go beyond business. This story began in Mithapur, Gujarat, in western India with the creation of a plant that would raise a wealth of marine chemicals from the ocean, with the potential to touch human lives in many ways. From these humble beginnings an international business in industrial essentials was created, with operations across four continents. Tata Chemicals is the world’s second largest producer of soda ash with manufacturing facilities in Asia, Europe, Africa, and North America. The company’s industry essentials product range provides key ingredients to some of the world’s largest manufacturers of glass, detergents, and other industrial products.
