Benchmark Mineral Intelligence did a write up on the grand opening of Asbury Carbons Inc.’s new Maastricht-based graphite and carbon plant, commenting that it will increase the company’s competitiveness in Europe. That’s because Asbury previously had to ship material from North America to Europe.
As quoted in the report:
While Asbury has long been a supplier of graphite and carbon products to the European market, it has previously had to ship material from North America and compete with companies that are predominately based in Germany.
The new plant, which has a capacity of up to 25,000 tpa for all graphite and carbon products, will increase Asbury’s competitiveness within Europe in today’s marketplace, and position the company to capture a significant portion of any growth that is likely to emerge in the carbon field.
Asbury, a 119 year old company that is still family-owned and run, has long served global industrial markets with high quality granular and micronized graphite products derived from all forms of natural graphite (flake, amorphous, vein).
The plant will also increase Asbury’s production clout in cokes, carbon black, anthracite and synthetic graphite.
