Brom, Public Joint Stock Company

Chairman of the Board: A. Kalashnikov

"Brom" is one of the leading Ukrainian chemical enterprises producing bromine, its inorganic salts, organo bromine compounds, magnesium oxides and carbonates for more than 60 years.

The company supplies its products to chemical, pharmaceutical, photographic, electrotechnical, optical industries; its chemicals have a wide variety of applications in agriculture, water treatment, glass manufacturing and tyre production. We also produce the goods of house-hold chemistry.

Being located in the northern part of Autonomous Republic of Crimea, just on the narrow istmus between the Black and Azov Sea, the company uses rich brines of the Sivash gulf as practically inexhaustible source of raw materials.

Strategic geographical position on the crossroad of traditional trading ways, proximity to the Black Sea ports and developed network of highways and railways enables the company to set flexible prices, to meet all the customers requirements and deliver the goods on any basis of the buyer's choice.

Having a range of equipment and facilities both in use and at rest, the company is now looking for the serious partners to work together for long-term period.

Our technical potential and experience of many years are at your service.
