DETAILS
Kemira is celebrating the inauguration
of the San Giorgio site in Italy, which has been
upgraded with state-of-the-art technology
allowing for further business expansion
in the south EMEA markets.
The site produces polymers
for different customer applications in
pulp & paper, oil & gas, mining and water treatment.
Thanks to new constructions, significant improvements
in storage, office space as well as
loading and parking facilities have been introduced.
Festivities include opening remarks by
the Finnish Ambassador to Italy Janne Taalas
and
President and CEO of Kemira, Jari Rosendal.
“We acquired 3F Chimica in October 2013,
including the San Giorgio site.
We felt there was a strong strategic fit both
with regard to our polymer business expansion
as well as through raw material, logistics
and fixed cost savings.
Since the acquisition, we have invested
EUR 30 million in San Giorgio,
more than doubling the site’s production capacity.
It is now one of the largest
dry and emulsion polymer sites in Europe,”
