Omsk Carbon Germany renamed Omsk Carbon Europe

In 2012 Russia’s largest carbon black manufacturer, Omsk Carbon Group, established its first fully-owned subsidiary outside its home market by setting up Omsk Carbon Germany in Waltrop, North Rhine Westphalia. The German office has doubled its sales every year under the leadership of Rainer Jung and is now expanding its operations in Italy, France and the UK. To reflect this, Omsk Carbon Germany has been renamed Omsk Carbon Europe GmbH. As of next year Omsk Carbon Europe will be responsible the group’s entire European activities and will coordinate its sales and distribution chain in Europe.

Omsk Carbon holds a 45 per cent share of the Russian carbon black market and a three per cent global share.
