Bluescope Steel is on the verge of
completing its greenfield pre-engineered building material project in Rajasthan.
Speaking to ProjectsToday, Bluescope officials confirmed that trial production
is expected in August 2006 and the plant will ready itself for commercial
production in September 2006.
Bluescope will manufacture the Lysaght
range of building products and the Butler brand of pre-engineered products at
the facility coming up at Chopanki in Alwar district of Rajasthan. Around 10
acres of land was acquired in March 2005 from Rajasthan State Industrial
Development & Investment Corporation in March 2005, and work had begun soon
thereafter.
This would be Australia-based
Bluescope's first venture in India. Similar ventures have been planned at
Chennai and Pune, among some other locations.
