TALCO intends to increase aluminum capacities to 300 thousand tons per year by 2020.
According to a company representative Igor Sattarov, it has all the possibilities of reaching the goal thanks to the current economical situation, positive market prospects and implementation of the new aluminum manufacture technique.
Previously TALCO capacity was 600 thousand tons of aluminum per year. The company was constructed in the Soviet Union times using highly energy-consuming techniques, because of which after 2008 aluminum manufacture became profitless.
In H1 TALCO produced 49.1 thousand tons of aluminum, down by 32.8% YoY. (Ukrainian metal)
