JSE-listed African Oxygen (Afrox) has inked a R147-million deal to supply nitrogen to Exxaro FerroAlloys’ West Pretoria plant for the next five years.


Afrox MD Brett Kimber said in a statement that the contract was one of its largest in terms of nitrogen supply and would lead to the upgrading of its distribution pipeline to meet the demand from the Exxaro plant.

“We are delighted Exxaro is partnering with Afrox for their expansion plans and this contract underscores the renewed reliability of our plants, now running at 99% nationally, and justifies the R193-million investment in the 200 t/d Pretoria-based air separation unit,” he said.
