Fertilisers And Chemicals Travancore Limited (FACT) is a pioneering Indian company, established in 1943, specializing in the production and marketing of fertilizers and petrochemicals. Initially a Kerala State PSU, FACT became a major player in the sector after the Indian government became its primary shareholder in 1962. Over the decades, FACT has diversified into engineering, consultancy, and the fabrication of industrial equipment. The company operates substantial production facilities, including an Ammonium Sulphate plant and a Caprolactam plant, with significant expansions over time.
FACT has focused on enhancing its infrastructure and capabilities, including a 900-tpd ammonia project and various modernization efforts. It has also expanded its market reach to new regions like Bihar and embraced coastal shipping for efficient distribution. The company is involved in power trading via the Indian Electricity Exchange (IEX). Recent developments include commissioning new ammonia barge and storage facilities to support its logistics and production capabilities, further strengthening its supply chain.
