The
NA Group is the largest copper producer in Europe and as well the largest
copper recycler worldwide. It produces about 800,000 tonnes of copper and
copper products annually and with about 3,200 employees is one of the
leading copper producers worldwide.
The core business is the
production of copper cathodes from copper concentrates, copper scrap and
recycling materials. These are then processed into continuous cast wire rod
and shapes, rolled products and copper alloys. Precious metals are likewise
an important product sector. Further specialty products produced and
marketed by the NA Group are all the major natural by-elements from copper
production. These are processed, for example, into sulphuric acid and iron
silicate stone. |
