BRIEF HISTORY OF CENTURY RAYON
In the wake of India's independence, with the initial industrial
boom in the offing, Syt B. K. Birla nurtured the idea of starting a viscose
yarn factory at Kalyan in Maharashtra under the banner of Century Textiles. Syt
BK Birla set the foundation of the company in 1952 that eventually was to
become one of the leading producers of Rayon Filament Yarn in the country.
While the vibrancy in upgrading the company's basic and subsidiary
products continued to grow to peak levels, a conscientious vision of Syt BK
Birla ensured that the company met all health and safety norms in its multi
faceted operations and be environmental friendly in every respect. The company
today prides itself in being a star rated and accredited Quality Management
System ISO 9001-2008 manufacturing unit. Besides, all the plants of the
company, including the chemical units, have since been accredited with the
Environmental Management System ISO 14001-2004 and the Occupational Health and
Safety Management System BS OSHAS 18001-2007
standards.
Today Century Rayon with its manufacturing plants is not only a
major job provider to many households in the region, but also it meets its many
social responsibilities making it perhaps the only industrial group in Mumbai
that has immensely contributed in the field of education and spiritual
upliftment. The Century High School, founded in 1958, the Birla School founded
in 1998,. The Birla College of Arts, Sciences and Commerce founded in 1972,
Vithoba Temple in the vicinity of the company in 1962 are few of the examples
of its many social responsibilities & its contributions in the field of
education and spiritual upliftment
Syt BK Birla, besides spearheading the BK Birla Group's business
undertakings and various social responsibilities to the people at large,
continues to maintain his link with the people. The 65 bedded Century Trust
Hospital located within the premises of the company complex was established in
1972 and provides affordable medical treatment to all and sundry besides its
own workers. The hospital's quest to continue upgrading its affordable services
to the people is an ongoing process.
The company under the able leadership of its Chairman, Syt BK Birla,
today continues to keep its vision focussed on excellence in these challenging
times to embrace newer technology and infuse greater sophistication in its many
manufacturing processes in order to continuously make impacting improvements in
