Chennai: City-based Carborundum Universal(CUMI), a leader in the abrasives and ceramics market, Friday said its Russian subsidiary Volzhsky Abrasive Works (VAW) will invest $50 million to build a new plant in that country.
VAW has signed a memorandum of understanding with the administration of Volgograd region in Russia, where the proposed plant will come up, CUMI chairman M.M. Murugappan told reporters here.
"The 100,000-tonne per annum plant will be built at an outlay of $50 million in phases. The capacity after the first phase will be 40,000 tonnes per annum," Murugappan said.
