| General | The only lead smelter in Romania Sometra Company was founded in 1939 and is
the largest zinc and lead metallurgy in Romania. Today, following investments made in the past years, exceeding $30 million, production is expected to stand at 80,000 tons, employing in parallel 1,200 employees. It should be noted that the investment cycle was completed in 2006 for both productivity improvement and production increase by 20-25%, and improvement of environmental operation terms according to European Union directives. |
