Orzel Bialy to complete zl. 50 million modernization of lead production plant

Bytom-based Orzel Bialy, a car battery recycling firm, is close to finishing its modernization of a lead production plant at a cost of zl.27 million. The upgrading is part of the firm's first investment stage that is to cost some zl.50 million in total. The company has signed intention letters with Polish and foreign car battery producers that are willing to buy recycled lead-alloys. The contractor for the investment works, which started at the beginning of this year, is AMK Krakow company, owned by the Mostostal Warszawa construction group. Currently Orzel Bialy produces 30-35 thousand tones of lead a year. The new plant will start production at the beginning of the fourth quarter. (Puls Biznesu, p.9) M.T.
