WeylChem Bilbao, a subsidiary of the International Chemical Investors Group (ICIG), has received shareholder approval to conduct a feasibility study on expanding its sulphur-melting unit. The proposed expansion could significantly boost the facility's melting capacity.

This move demonstrates ICIG's strong confidence in the Bilbao site and its long-term position within the European sulphur value chain. It also highlights the strategic priority of securing a reliable supply of molten sulphur for the European chemical industry.

As an established participant in the European sulphur market, WeylChem Bilbao has been supplying molten sulphur to customers across Europe for many years through its integrated production and logistics platform.

“This approval marks an important step into the future and demonstrates our shareholder's confidence in the Bilbao site, our people and the long-term fundamentals of the European sulphur market,” said Alix Deschamps, Managing Director of WeylChemBilbao.
