Authorised India Channel · AMG Aluminum

Every casting
begins with the grain.

Kraft Works Resources is the exclusive India distributor for AMG Aluminum — the world's leading producer of aluminium grain refiners and master alloys. We bring eight decades of casthouse metallurgy to Indian smelters, extruders and foundries.

Who we are

One principal.
One job.

Kraft Works Resources exists for a single purpose: to represent AMG Aluminum in India properly. We do not trade a catalogue of unrelated products, and we do not carry competing lines.

That focus is deliberate. Casthouse consumables are not commodities bought on price alone — a grain refiner that fades, a master alloy that recovers inconsistently, or a flux that arrives three weeks late costs an Indian casthouse far more than the material itself. Serving one principal well means we can hold the right stock, know every datasheet, and answer a metallurgical question the same day it is asked.

We supply primary smelters, DC casthouses, extrusion billet producers, rolling and foil operations, wire rod plants and high‑pressure die casting foundries across India — with full material traceability and mill certification on every consignment.

01 / SUPPLY

Stock held in India

Working inventory of fast‑moving grain refiner rod, waffle and ALTAB™ tablets held locally, so a casthouse is never waiting on an ocean shipment to keep a cast running.

02 / TECHNICAL

Casthouse support

Addition‑rate optimisation, fade studies, grain size assessment and troubleshooting — with direct escalation to AMG's applications teams in the UK, US and Brazil when a problem needs the lab.

03 / COMPLIANCE

Certified and traceable

Every lot arrives with mill test certificates traceable to an ISO 9001 AMG plant. Documentation packs sized for aerospace, defence and automotive audit requirements.

04 / COMMERCIAL

Direct principal pricing

As the appointed channel we buy at factory terms and pass a landed, INR‑denominated, duty‑paid price — no layered intermediaries, no surprise cost build‑up at the port.

Why it matters in India

Global metallurgy,
landed locally.

India produces over four million tonnes of primary aluminium a year, and its downstream sector is growing faster than its supply of high‑specification casthouse consumables.

AMG's development of grain refiners and master alloys underpins the alloys that reduce vehicle weight, form beverage can stock, and raise the performance of electrical transmission cable. Its TiBAl ADVANCE GREEN™ grain refiner is produced with low‑carbon aluminium — increasingly relevant as Indian producers report against BRSR and customer Scope 3 requirements.

Specialty master alloys — scandium, beryllium, strontium, zirconium — have no meaningful domestic equivalent in India. For aerospace, defence and premium automotive programmes, AMG is frequently the only qualified route.

Founder & Managing Director

Girija Singh founded Kraft Works Resources to give AMG Aluminum a dedicated, technically capable presence in India — one that treats casthouse supply as an engineering relationship rather than a purchase order. She leads the firm's principal relationship, commercial strategy and customer engagement across the country.

Portfolio · AMG Aluminum

Everything a casthouse
puts in the melt.

Grain refiners, hardeners, compacted additives, fluxes and the feeding equipment that delivers them — supplied in India by Kraft Works Resources. Ratios, forms and pack sizes are configured to your alloy and casting practice.

Flagship grain refiner

TiBAl ADVANCE

AMG's most efficient grain refiner, developed as casthouses pushed quality standards higher on critical products. Every batch is validated against proprietary DC casting simulation to guarantee a controlled refining response even at very low addition levels — so you buy less material per tonne cast and hold grain size where you want it. The GREEN™ variant is manufactured using low‑carbon aluminium for producers reporting on embodied emissions.

Nucleation control

Grain Refiners

A full range of titanium‑to‑boron, titanium‑to‑carbon and titanium‑to‑aluminium ratios to suit the conditions in your plant. Controlled addition releases nucleant particles into molten aluminium, promoting a fine equiaxed structure throughout the cast alloy instead of columnar crystals — holding product consistency, cutting cost and letting casting speed rise.

Composition & properties

Master Alloys

Hardeners carrying alloying elements in high concentration, giving a convenient and economical route to target chemistry. They dissolve at lower melt temperatures than pure elements — reducing dross formation, limiting hydrogen pick‑up, cutting furnace energy and extending lining life. Includes specialty and mechanical alloys with essentially no domestic Indian equivalent.

Bulk & trim additions

Compacted Additives — ALTAB™

Hardener elements such as Mn, Cr, Fe, Ti and Cu compacted with high‑grade aluminium powder into tablet form. Because the elements are not in solution, recovery is slower than a master alloy — so many casthouses run both: ALTAB™ for bulk or precise trim additions, waffle hardener for the balance. Used worldwide on foilstock and canstock rolling ingot, precision extrusion billet and quality foundry alloys.

Chemicals & Fluxes

Blends of solid inorganic compounds formulated for degassing, demagging, cleaning, grain refining and chemistry modification of molten alloys. Includes potassium aluminium fluoride (KAlF₄) as an alternative to conventional fluoride salts, and potassium fluoroborate (KBF₄) — a key ingredient in grain refining salts, used alone or combined with potassium titanium fluoride.

Casthouse equipment

Rod Feeder Systems

Purpose‑designed units for continuous grain refinement and alloying of casthouse melts using grain refiner in rod form. Continuous feeding removes the batch‑addition variability that shows up as grain size drift down the cast, and gives repeatable, auditable addition rates. Supplied with commissioning support and matched consumable supply.

you're casting.

Alloy, cast format, tonnage and current addition practice are enough for us to come back with a grade recommendation, addition rate and a landed price. Technical questions reach a metallurgist, not a call queue.
