 Bangladesh Chemical Industries Corporation, fully owned by the Government, was established in July, 1976 by a presidential Order.  The Corporation is now managing 13 large and medium size industrial enterprises engaged in producing a wide range of products like Urea, TSP, Paper, Cement, Insulator, Sanitary ware etc.  Besides, BCIC is involved in 10 joint venture enterprises to a varying degree of success with local entrepreneurs and foreign investors having equity participation ranging from 20% to 40%. The joint venture enterprises are engaged in the manufacture of medicine, insecticides, safety matches, paper, packaging, paper converting, etc. In this aspect it may be noted that BCIC holds on behalf of the Government of Bangladesh the largest chunk of shares in Karnaphuli Fertilizer Co. Ltd.

With an installed capacity of 1,00,000 MT TSP and 1,20,000 MT SSP per annum. TSP Complex went into commercial production in 1976. Later, a granulation plant has been added to produce granular TSP with a view to catering to the long-felt need of the farmers.

The consumption of chemical fertilizer in Bangladesh since its introduction in 1951-52 has steadily increased as the country has been modernizing its agriculture for attaining autarky in food grain production thereby ensuring food security and improving nutritional status. The total food grain production (rice, wheat and maize) rose from 19.06 million ton in 1995-96 to 28.88 million ton in 2005-2006. Now there is hardly any crop that does not use fertilizer. The major chemical fertilizers used are: Urea, TSP (Triple Super Phosphate), SSP (Single Super Phosphate), DAP (Diammonium Phosphate), MP (Muriate of Potash), Ammonium Sulfate (AS), Zinc Sulfate, Gypsum, NPKS (Nitrogen-PhosphorousPotassium-Sulfur containing mixture) etc. The total consumption of these fertilizers increased from 3.023 million ton in 1995-96 to 3.683 million ton in 2005-06. Urea constitutes about 67 percent of all the fertilizers consumed in 2005-06; while Zinc Sulfate and Gypsum are micro-nutrients and they constitute only 3.07 percent of the total fertilizer consumption. The natural Gas Fertilizer Factory (NGFF at Fenchugonj) which was commissioned in 1961 was the first Urea fertilizer complex in the country based on indigenous natural gas as feedstock and fuel. Thereafter, six more natural gas are based on urea fertilizer.
