CFU to sell its Powder Plant Assets in the UK

 

Ceramic Fuel Cells (Powder) Ltd signs agreement with ICL-PP Europe

 

Ceramic Fuel Cells Limited (AIM/ASX: CFU), a world leader in developing and manufacturing fuel-cell-based micro power plants, is pleased to announce that an agreement has been signed with the Materials Business Unit of ICL-PP Europe ("ICL-PP") for the sale of CFU's powder plant assets in Bromborough, UK, for £ 1,150,000 (circa A$2 million).

 

A change in production process has resulted in CFU no longer utilising the powder from the plant, hence, CFU has realised a surplus asset which will have no detrimental effect on the Company.

 

ICL-PP's purchase of the powder plant assets arises from an exclusive option granted to it in 2012 to acquire the plant. ICL-PP has exercised its option to purchase the powder plant assets andhas agreed to employ all the powder plant's current employees. 

 

Bob Kennett, Managing Director of CFU, said: "The sale of the powder plant assets is another positive step in the reorganisation and refocusing of the company on its core competencies. I am also delighted that all the staff of Ceramic Fuel Cells (Powder) Ltd will have ongoing employment with ICL-PP Europe."

 

Commenting on the transaction, Mr. Rainer Gruber, leader of ICL-PP Europe's Materials Business Unit said, "Our purchase of CFU's powder plant assets will enable ICL-PP to substantially increase its business activities by entering into a new market of technical, medical and dental applications derived from ceramic specialties."
