Sergey Begoulev, Managing Director of OJSC Pobeda, comments:
“We believe that we have made the right decision. Undoubtedly, Händle and Lingl possess significant experience in supply of the equipment for brick plants. Besides, they have offered us favourable conditions, regarding both costs and terms.
Today the buildings and infrastructure at the new brick plant of LSR Group is almost completed. However, the plant commissioning has been postponed because our supplier of equipment, CERIC, turned insolvent. Despite this the project is still underway. As a result, LSR Group will get a new advanced brick plant as well as a large land plot, available for development and construction of housing after the relocation of the production facility”.
