Announcement: New Metals and Polymers Colour Coating Line

April 23rd, 2010 marked the opening ceremony of the new Continuous Colour Coating Line at Metals and Polymers plant in Alchevsk, in the Ukraine. The ceremony marked the culmination of almost two years of dedicated application by the staff of Bronx International and Metals and Polymers.

The opening ceremony was attended by 180 people, with representatives from local government, banks and businesses, locally and internationally.

Representing Bronx was Robert Idzes, Joe Parkinson and Irina Samoylova. Also present, were Colin George and Paul Coleman from EFIC Australia, and Dan Tebbutt from Austrade, Moscow.

Three flags fluttered in the wind in front of the factory building – the Company, Ukrainian and Australian flags.

Irina Begicheva, General Director of the company stated: “Professionalism and devotion to the business from both teams, Australian and Ukrainian gave birth to this interesting enterprise. That is the very reason why the flags of our countries have opened the entrance to the celebration ceremony and overwhelmed our hearts with honour and joy”.

The next stage of the project is a NOF Galvanizing Line, now in its commissioning stage, due to go into production mid August, 2010.
