Uhde GmbH completes 100 years

The Chemical Process and Technologies division formerly known as Uhde GmbH━the plant engineering group company in thyssenkrupp Industrial Solutions India━has completed 100 years since its foundation in Germany.

Started by the late Friedrich Uhde on 21 April 1921, Uhde GmbH started out as an engineering contractor for implementing fertiliser plants, before venturing into petrochemicals and polymers, caustic soda and other sectors of the chemical industries. The company eventually evolved into an engineering major building mega projects in Europe and the Middle East.

It entered India as a site office in the mid-sixties, before setting up a branch office in Mumbai in the late sixties, and converting it to an Indian company, Uhde India Limited, in 1977.

Uhde India Limited established itself as a leading provider of solutions for the chemical process industries soon after inception. Amongst the first engineering companies to be allowed a transfer of technology under the ‘License Systems’ of those days, the company has gone on to establish itself as a leading engineering company with projects in a variety of contracting modes for India’s leading chemical manufacturers.

Thyssenkrupp Industrial Solutions India, as the company is now known, has core competencies in nitrogenous fertilisers, petrochemicals, caustic soda-chlorine, and cryogenic storages. In many of these areas like caustic soda chlorine. In the last decade, the company further ventured into the refining, phosphatic fertilisers and metallurgical businesses.
