Russia’s United Company RUSAL has finished the upgrade of its Armenal
foil production plant in Armenia, RUSAL said Wednesday.
As a result of the upgrade, the plant’s annual production capacity
rose 50% to 25,000 tonnes of foil.
According to earlier reports, RUSAL invested U.S. $70 million to carry
out a complete overhaul of Armenal, which focuses on the production
of thin foil for export to the U.S., Europe, and Middle East.
The foil mill was established in May 2000 and integrated into RUSAL.
