During the International Colloquium on Refractories (ICR) in Aachen, Germany, Almatis and ROMCO signed a term sheet outlining the key principles for a long-term strategic partnership for Brown Fused Alumina (BFA).

The proposed partnership brings together ROMCO’s established fused alumina manufacturing capabilities in India with Almatis ’global sales, technical service and distribution network. Subject to the conclusion of definitive agreements, the parties intend to establish a long-term manufacturing, sales and marketing collaboration for ROMCO’s Brown Fused Alumina portfolio.

Almatis CEO Anil Sonmez stated, “This is another significant step forward in line with our vision, ‘Alumina and Beyond for Tomorrow.” Sonmez continued, “Following the expansion of our Calcium Aluminate Cement portfolio through a strategic partnership agreement with Cimsa in 2025, BFA is the second new material that Almatis has added to its portfolio.”

ROMCO Chairman Ashok Agarwal commented, We see this partnership as an important step in ROMCO’s journey towards becoming a globally competitive fused alumina manufacturing platform from India. By combining ROMCO’s nearly four decades of manufacturing experience, expanding production capabilities and commitment to quality with Almatis global market reach, technical expertise and distribution network, we believe we can create a strong and reliable BFA supply platform for customers worldwide.”
