Knauf, the German supplier of construction materials and local company Technogips announced they have put into operation part of their plasterboard plants near the power complex Maritsa East.

The two companies launched the construction of the two plants nearly simultaneously in 2007 after qualifying for certification as First Class Investor by InvestBulgaria Agency, the local investment promotion authority.

The plants will use the by-product from the flue gas desulphurisation operations of nearby power complex Maritsa East.

The projects of Knauf and Technogips are worth BGN 120 M and BGN 95 M respectively.

Knauf Bulgaria is a subsidiary of Knauf Austria, which stepped in Bulgaria in 1997 after the acquisition of the Gipsofazer plant in Vidin, North-western Bulgaria.

Technogips is owned by Balkanstroy, established in 1994.
