The Inasa plant near Pamplona is now operated by Bavaria Industriekapital AG under the name Inasa Foil SA.
An after-tax book loss of about NOK 200 million will be realized in Hydro’s fourth-quarter 2009 results.
The plant, with more than 200 employees and an annual capacity of 30,000 tonnes, had been part of Hydro's Rolled Products business area, which remains a leading, worldwide supplier of rolled aluminium products, shipping up to 1 million tonnes per year and employing a workforce of around 4,000.
Hydro will continue serving Spanish customers of rolled aluminium products through its sales office in Barcelona (see contact details in right column).
