Cinis Fertilizer signed a long-term agreement with K+S Minerals and Agriculture GmbH regarding the purchase and delivery of potassium chloride to Cinis Fertilizer’s first two production facilities in Örnsköldsvik and in Skellefteå, Sweden.

The second plant, for the production of around 200,000 tonnes of potassium sulphate, will be built in the direct vicinity of the cooperation partner Northvolt in the city of Skellefteå and is scheduled to commence production mid-2025.

“We are pleased that K+S chooses to confirm already now the previous declaration of intent regarding cooperation regarding our important input product, potassium chloride,” said Jakob Liedberg, founder and CEO of Cinis Fertilizer. “The agreement safeguards our production plan.
