What Trafalgar Group does

Trafalgar Group is a privately-held industrial engineering conglomerate founded in 1996 and headquartered in the Jebel Ali Free Zone of Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The group operates through three wholly-owned subsidiaries: Trafalgar EPC (TEPC) executes turnkey engineering, procurement, and construction projects across mining, minerals, iron and steel, power generation, and railway infrastructure; Trafalgar Industries Pvt. Ltd. (TIPL) manufactures industrial and consumer paper bags from a 12-acre facility in Halol, Gujarat with 120 million bags/year initial capacity using European automated lines; and Trafalgar Rare Earth Alloys Pvt. Ltd. (TREAPL) produces rare earth metals, alloys, and sintered magnets for India's clean energy transition market.

Trafalgar's technology portfolio covers the full lifecycle of heavy industrial assets, from ore mining and beneficiation (including beach sand minerals such as ilmenite, rutile, and zircon) through sintering and pelletization (sinter plants 18 m² to 350+ m², pellet plants 0.1 Mtpa to 2.4+ Mtpa), iron and steel making (blast furnaces 180 m³ to 1,800 m³, BOFs, EAFs, continuous casters, rolling mills), coke dry quenching with up to 80% heat recovery, waste heat and renewable power generation, and railway electrification and signalling (1,500V DC to 25kV AC, GSM-R telecommunications). The group's go-to-market is direct enterprise sales for large-scale EPC contracts, supported by a global associate network spanning the UK, North America, Australia, China, the Middle East, Ukraine, and India.

Revenue is generated through three streams: EPC turnkey project services, industrial manufacturing and equipment supply (paper bags, heavy earth-moving machinery, bulk material handling systems), and technology licensing/consultancy. Pricing is project-specific and not publicly disclosed. The corporate structure is exceptionally lean — only 24 employees in the parent — reflecting a model that combines minimal overhead with extensive reliance on partner networks and three operating subsidiaries for execution.
