More PMB in Drammen

Nynas depot in Drammen has expanded PMB capacity in place.

The purpose of this investment is to be able to provide Norwegian customers with PMB that is locally produced in Drammen, avoiding long road transport journeys from other production facilities when demand is high and resulting in shorter lead times from order to delivery.

The improved storage capacity also means that it will be possible to supply different PMB qualities in parallel. These measures are important, not only to help Nynas continue to grow in the Norwegian market, but also to secure the company’s role as an environmentally aware supplier.
