The name of the Company CARBONE LORRAINE GRECE SA changes to “MERSEN HELLAS ANONIME INDUSTRIAL COMPANY FOR PRODUCTION AND SALE OF COAL AND GRAPHITE PRODUCTS” and the new distinguishing title is “MERSEN Hellas S.A.”.

Due to the prolonged financial crisis that has been developing in Greece since 2010, the MERSEN Group, in order to reduce the financial risk, wishes to withdraw from the capital of MERSEN Hellas S.A. while ensuring the sustainability of the Unit. The solution lies in the assumption of the Company’s capital by its experienced managers. The MERSEN Group ensures the continued provision of know-how and commercial coverage.
