Koch Fertilizer Canada Plans To Create Ammonia-Urea Production At Manitoba, Canada, Plant

12/20/2013
Koch Fertilizer Canada plans to invest an initial $30 million to increase ammonia production and operational efficiencies at its Brandon, Manitoba, Canada production facility.

The project will include the installation of production equipment along with process improvements to provide the foundation for a series of further ammonia projects to increase capacity, which could total 90,000 additional tons annually. Construction for the project is expected to begin in the second half of 2014 with completion anticipated in late 2015.

In addition to the planned increase in ammonia production, the company is also considering a project that would increase urea production capacity at the Brandon plant.

“This investment in infrastructure and increased capacity supports our continuing efforts to provide value for our customers,” said Scott McGinn, Senior Vice President, North America, “We will continue to evaluate further production expansion opportunities.”

Koch Fertilizer Canada employs 260 full- time employees and contractors in Brandon, with plans to fill 29 positions, including; Senior Process Engineer, Quality Control Specialist and 2nd Class Engineer.
