The facility, which involves an investment of over $ 200 million, is expected to produce about 100,000 tons of ammonia a year and its construction will take about three years. SAIPEM's work includes engineering, procurement, construction and equipment for the production facility and its operation. With its establishment, a stable, safe and continuous supply of ammonia will be made possible, which, as we all know, constitutes a very important raw material in Haifa's production processes. We are expected to use about 70% of the ammonia that will be produced, the rest of the output will be offered for sale to customers in Israel for the wide range of uses of ammonia - fertilizers, pharmaceuticals, paint, refrigerants, synthetic fibers and more.

The construction of the facility is the largest investment that Haifa has ever made in a single facility and is another step in implementing the Haifa Group's expansion plan to double the production capacity of "Haifa Negev" in Mishor Rotem and as mentioned, it will be carried out at the world's highest standards of safety, efficiency and environmental protection. Self-production of ammonia will enable a continuous, stable and independent supply of the main raw material in the process of manufacturing the quality flagship products of Haifa. This is a strategic move that strengthens the Haifa Group's position as a world leader in the production and supply of precise nutrients for the plant that contribute to increasing agricultural yields while maintaining ecological balance.
