It has a large pool of trained engineers and application specialists to offer customers total solution for Refractory for flow control in Steel Teeming and Continuous Casting of Steel.

Refractories - Refractories are material having high melting points, with properties that make them suitable to act as heat-resisting barriers between high and low temperature zones. Refractories are inorganic nonmetallic material which can withstand high temperature without undergoing physical or chemical changes while remaining in contact with molten slag, metal and gases.

Raw Materials - Principal raw materials used in the production of refractories are: oxides of silicon, aluminum, magnesium, calcium and zirconium and some non-oxide refractories like alumina,carbides, nitrides, borides, silicates and graphite.

Uses - Refractories are used by metallurgy industry for flow control and also in the internal linings of furnaces, kilns, reactors and other vessels for holding and transporting metal and slag. In non-metallurgical industries, the refractories are mostly installed on fired heaters, hydrogen reformers, ammonia primary and secondary reformers, cracking furnaces, utility boilers, catalytic cracking units, coke calciner, sulfur furnaces, air heaters, ducting, stacks, etc.The Slide Gate Refractories Plant was started in the year 1984.

Outlook - Global steel demand remain week due to uncertainty surrounding trade policies, volatility
in the financial markets and China's deceleration however Indian economy provides domestic
demand for wide range of ongoing infrastructure projects which are likely to support growth in steel
demand above 7% in both 2019 and 2020. India already the second largest steel producer in the
world after china is targeting for 300MT/annum capacity by 2030 from 100MT/annum now due to
rise in per capita steel consumption.

Valuation - IFGL has reduced debt significantly and now it is a net zero debt company and book
value has increased from Rs.70 in FY13 to 220 in FY19. IFGL has closed FY19 with 946 crore of
topline and 50 crore of bottom line whereas the cash profit alone is 95 crore. A professionally
