Our Story
Edayar zinc Ltd came into existence in 1967. Collaborating with Cominco Ltd., a Canadian metal conglomerate, we began the production of Electrolytic Zinc. Soon we became a forerunner in the Indian Electrolytic Zinc industry. Over the years, the company expanded to over 600 direct and indirect employees. The company grew steadily over half a decade contributing significantly to Kerala’s socio-economic and industrial growth.
In 2014, with its financial constraints growing in the post-globalization scenario, the sales began to slowly plummet, almost reaching bankruptcy, and the smelting plant was shut down. However, in 2019, the company turned itself around with new investors taking over the whole enterprise. Under their direction, the company has settled all its liabilities, including undisputed governmental liabilities. Despite the Covid pandemic and related economic slowdown, we completed restructuring, settlement and revival activities for setting the ground for Future Grownd, our revival project.
Edayar Zinc Ltd has a rich history that spans over five decades. The company’s journey began in 1967 when it entered into a partnership with Cominco Ltd, a Canadian metal conglomerate, to produce electrolytic zinc. The company quickly established itself as a pioneer in the Indian electrolytic zinc industry. Its relentless pursuit of excellence and commitment to quality made it a trusted name in the industry.
Over the years, the company grew from strength to strength, expanding its operations and workforce to include over 600 direct and indirect employees. Its contributions to Kerala’s socio-economic and industrial growth were significant and commendable. The company’s unwavering dedication to innovation and sustainable development was recognized by the industry, and it received several accolades and awards for its outstanding performance.
However, in 2014, the company faced financial constraints due to the changing global economic scenario, which resulted in a decline in sales. The situation worsened, and the smelting plant had to be shut down. The company was on the brink of bankruptcy, and it seemed like the end of the road for Edayar Zinc Ltd.
Fortunately, in 2019, the company found a new lease of life as new investors took over the entire enterprise. Under their guidance and leadership, the company was able to settle all its liabilities, including undisputed governmental liabilities. Despite the unprecedented challenges posed by the Covid pandemic and the resultant economic slowdown, the company was able to complete its restructuring, settlement, and revival activities successfully.
The revival project, named Future Ground, is an ambitious initiative aimed at taking the company to new heights of success and prosperity. The project envisages a comprehensive overhaul of the company’s operations, with a renewed focus on sustainability, innovation, and customer satisfaction. The company’s management and employees are working tirelessly towards achieving this goal, and early signs of progress are visible.
