GrowHow UK announce temporary suspension of Ammonia manufacture at Billingham
GrowHow UK has temporarily suspended manufacture of ammonia at its Billingham site, in response to the global downturn in demand in both agricultural and many other industrial markets.
The decision does not affect the ability of GrowHow UK to meet demand for UK fertiliser. Ammonium nitrate continues to be manufactured at both the company's UK sites to fulfil current orders and its forecasts for spring demand.
"Ammonia produced at Billingham is used by a wide range of industries, including the building industry, motor manufacture where there has been considerable reduction in activity," said Ken Bowler, Marketing Manager, GrowHow UK.
