According to Huacheng Import and Export Data Observation, on April 28, 2023, Eurasia announced that it will invest in the construction of a new calcium carbonate satellite factory in the Asia Pacific region as a partner of multiple paper industry partners.

According to agreements reached with multiple paper companies since 2022, seven calcium carbonate satellite factories with a total production capacity of 1 million tons will be invested and constructed in China and Indonesia.

The six satellite factories invested and constructed in China are three heavy calcium carbonate (GCC) factories located in Guangxi, Guangdong, and Shandong, three light calcium carbonate (PCC) factories located in Fujian and Shandong, and one heavy calcium carbonate (GCC) factory invested and constructed in Indonesia.

The calcium carbonate products produced by the satellite factory include filler grade PCC and GCC, coating grade GCC, and high-end GCC focused on replacing porcelain clay. The total production capacity of the invested heavy calcium carbonate (GCC) factory is 740000 absolute dry tons/year, and the total production capacity of the light calcium carbonate (PCC) factory is 260000 absolute dry tons/year.

Mr. Peter Tynell, Vice President of the Global Paper Business Unit at Omia, said, "It is an honor to have been selected as a long-term partner by our key customers, and we are also excited about the construction and upcoming operation of these new factories.

Calcium carbonate products are important production raw materials in the papermaking industry, which can endow paper with key properties such as opacity, whiteness, glossiness, smoothness, printing performance, and reduce paper production costs. Omia's excellent product quality, research and development capabilities, total cost control, technical services, and project execution capabilities are key to winning customer trust.
