Phosphate fertilizer<br />
production<br />
Our plants in Russia and Lithuania<br />
produce MAP, DAP, NP and feed<br />
phosphates as well as a growing<br />
number of complex products. All our<br />
facilities have sulphuric acid capacity<br />
and phosphoric acid units. Our<br />
Lithuanian plant also produces<br />
aluminium fluoride, which is used<br />
in the manufacture of aluminium, glass<br />
and optics as well as in the tanning<br />
industry. Wherever possible, our<br />
facilities use phosphate rock from our<br />
Kovdorskiy and Kazakhstan mines.<br />
