AMG's Strategic Move: New Chrome Manufacturing Facility in US
AMG Announces Innovative Chrome Production Facility in North America
AMG Critical Materials N.V. (EURONEXT AMSTERDAM: AMG) has exciting news to share about its latest venture—an investment of USD $15 million to develop a new aluminothermic production facility dedicated to manufacturing chrome metal in the United States. This plant, with the potential to produce up to 6,500 tons annually, aims to be operational by the first quarter of 2026 and is strategically situated next to AMG Titanium’s facility in New Castle, Pennsylvania.
The Importance of Chrome Metal Production
AMG Chrome has established itself as a leading supplier of chrome metal in other parts of the world, particularly in the UK. What makes this new facility noteworthy is that it will be the only chrome production plant actively operating in the U.S. market. Chrome metal is classified as a Critical Material because of its vital role in a variety of industrial alloys. Currently, the lack of chrome production in the U.S. poses challenges, making AMG's facility crucial for meeting domestic demand.
