Tata Steel Introduction

Backed by 100 glorious years of experience in steel making, Tata Steel is the world’s 6th largest steel company with an existing annual crude steel production capacity of 30 Million Tonnes Per Annum (MTPA). Established in 1907, it is the first integrated steel plant in Asia and is now the world`s second most geographically diversified steel producer and a Fortune 500 Company.

Tata Steel has a balanced global presence in over 50 developed European and fast growing Asian markets, with manufacturing units in 26 countries.

It was the vision of the founder; Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata., that on 27th February, 1908, the first stake was driven into the soil of Sakchi.  His vision helped Tata Steel overcome several periods of adversity and strive to improve against all odds.

Tata Steel`s Jamshedpur (India) Works has a crude steel production capacity of 6.8 MTPA which is slated to increase to 10 MTPA by 2010. The Company also has proposed three Greenfield steel projects in the states of Jharkhand, Orissa and Chhattisgarh in India with additional capacity of 23 MTPA and a Greenfield project in Vietnam.

Through investments in Corus, Millennium Steel (renamed Tata Steel Thailand) and NatSteel Holdings, Singapore, Tata Steel has created a manufacturing and marketing network in Europe, South East Asia and the pacific-rim countries. Corus, which manufactured over 20 MTPA of steel in 2008, has operations in the UK, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Norway and Belgium.

Tata Steel Thailand is the largest producer of long steel products in Thailand, with a manufacturing capacity of 1.7 MTPA. Tata Steel has proposed a 0.5 MTPA mini blast furnace project in Thailand. NatSteel Holdings produces about 2 MTPA of steel products across its regional operations in seven countries.

Tata Steel, through its joint venture with Tata BlueScope Steel Limited, has also entered the steel building and construction applications market.

The iron ore mines and collieries in India give the Company a distinct advantage in raw material sourcing. Tata Steel is also striving towards raw materials security through joint ventures in Thailand, Australia, Mozambique, Ivory Coast (West Africa) and Oman. Tata Steel has signed an agreement with Steel Authority of India Limited to establish a 50:50 joint venture company for coal mining in India. Also, Tata Steel has bought 19.9% stake in New Millennium Capital Corporation, Canada for iron ore mining.

Exploration of opportunities in titanium dioxide business in Tamil Nadu, ferro-chrome plant in South Africa and setting up of a deep-sea port in coastal Orissa are integral to the Growth and Globalisation objective of Tata Steel.

Tata Steel’s vision is to be the global steel industry benchmark for Value Creation and Corporate Citizenship.

Tata Steel India is the first integrated steel company in the world, outside Japan, to be awarded the Deming Application Prize 2008 for excellence in Total Quality Management.

Corporate Sustainability

Regarded globally as a benchmark in corporate social responsibility, Tata Steel's commitment to the community remains the bedrock of its hundred years of sustainability. Its mammoth social outreach programme covers the company-managed city of Jamshedpur and over 800 villages in and around its manufacturing and raw materials operations through uplift initiatives in the areas of income generation, health and medical care, education, sports, and relief.

The Company, fully conscious of its responsibilities to the future generations, has always taken pro-active measures to ensure optimum utilization of natural resources. This is reflected in the ISO-14001 certification that all its operations have achieved for environment management. The SA 8000 certification for work conditions and improvements in the workplace at the steel works in Jamshedpur, along with its Ferro Alloys and Minerals Division, is a reiteration of its commitment towards the Company's employees. Tata Steel has pioneered numerous employee welfare measures such as the 8 hours working day and the three tier joint consultation system of management which have been the platform for nearly 80 years of industrial harmony in its Steel Works in Jamshedpur.

塔塔钢铁是塔塔集团全资拥有的一家支柱产业公司，成立于1907年。目前年产能达2700万吨，为世界第六大钢铁公司。塔塔钢铁的业务遍及世界45个国家，制造中心分布于英国、荷兰、印度、新加坡、越南、泰国以及中国等。其中塔塔钢铁在中国的无锡和厦门分别投资建有两个钢厂，在辽宁建有一个钢铁生产用耐火材料厂，共雇用了700名当地员工；塔塔钢铁同时也在中国大量采购钢铁设备。目前塔塔钢铁在中国采购加销售的营业总额为20亿美元。
    2007年2月，塔塔钢铁出资113亿美元成功收购欧洲第二大钢铁公司英荷科鲁斯（Corus），创下印度迄今为止最大的一起海外并购纪录，并使塔塔钢铁一跃成为世界第六大钢铁公司。
    塔塔钢铁被认为是世界上制造成本最低的钢铁公司。面临全球铁矿石价格上涨及能源价格高企带来的成本压力，穆瑟拉曼表示，塔塔钢铁之所以能成为世界上制造成本最低的工厂之一，一个很重要的原因是塔塔钢铁在印度拥有自己的铁矿石资源，同时生产效率也很高。
    塔塔在印度以外的钢铁厂，如位于英国、荷兰的工厂，则需要从外部采购原材料。穆瑟拉曼为此表示，塔塔钢铁的长远目标是使自己大量拥有原材料，并和中国一样，已经展开了对外原材料资源的投资。目前塔塔钢铁已经在澳大利亚和非洲的莫桑比克分别投资了一个煤矿，在科特迪瓦投资了一座矿山。另外，还在阿曼收购了一个石灰石矿。
