Plans to create national nitrogen company abandoned

The original idea was to create the new company around the ZA Puławy nitrogen plant. "Tarnów and Kędzierzyn were pressing on maintaining their identities, which would in turn make it very difficult to merge the firms under the auspices of Puławy," said a representative of NP. He added that NP has definitely finished with the idea and is now conducting negotiations with potential investors for Tarnów and Kędzierzyn. These would be good catches for PKN Orlen, but only if Orlen did not have to maintain their plastic manufacturing divisions. NP would also like to force new investors to take the burden of paying off the debts. (Puls Biznesu, pp. 1, 5) M.M.
