Fort Gloster Industries had a phenomenal growth & became the first in many developments in our country in cable trade. Incorporated in 1890 the cable division was established in 1958 to undertake production of electric wires & cables under technical collaboration with British Insulated Callendar’s Company Ltd., London, UK. (BICC)
A timeless journey of innovation & excellence
Our journey began in 1873 when the Fort Gloster Jute Manufacturing Company Limited acquired the historic garrison land along the scenic banks of the Ganges. With a vision to contribute to India’s industrial revolution, a jute factory was established—marking the genesis of Fort Gloster’s legacy.
Embracing industrial diversification, the company stepped into the world of electrical manufacturing by establishing a Cable Division. In a strategic collaboration with British Insulated Callenders Cables Ltd. (BICC), UK, a global pioneer in cable technology, the company began producing electric wires and cables. To reflect this new era, our name was changed to Fort Gloster Industries Limited.
In a landmark achievement, Fort Gloster introduced India’s first Radial Curing Process for manufacturing High Voltage XLPE cables, in collaboration with Sumitomo Electric, Japan. A state-of-the-art CCV Line was imported from Japan, marking a new chapter in advanced cable manufacturing.
Fort Gloster Industries Limited was reborn when it was reacquired by Gloster Limited through the Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process (CIRP) under the visionary leadership of Shri Hemant Bangur, son of Late Gopal Das Bangur. This marked a revival of legacy and the beginning of a transformative journey.
A complete transformation of the manufacturing facility was undertaken. The plant infrastructure was modernized, obsolete machinery was phased out, and cutting-edge equipment was installed—laying the foundation for a future-ready, high-performance facility.
