The General Meeting also adopted resolutions on the approval of the actions taken by the members of the Management and Supervisory Boards and electing an auditor for Financial Year 2009. In its address to the shareholders, the Management Board once again pointed out the high strategic importance of the extensive investments which the company is currently making, including construction of a new additives production plant in Schwandorf, a project with an investment volume of EUR 20 million. Nabaltec's additives are intended for use in the PVC industry, where they will take the place of additives which contain heavy metals and are therefore environmentally harmful, as are currently used e.g. in cable coating, plastic window frames, flooring and rolling shutters. Nabaltec's products are rather purely mineral-based and eco-friendly, as well as featuring new functions. Nabaltec's total investment in its two business divisions, 'Functional Fillers' and 'Technical Ceramics,' is over EUR 20 million this year, and last year's investment volume came to EUR 20.4 million. In light of these investments, the decision to carry forward the company's 2008 distributable profit will give Nabaltec AG more financial flexibility to position itself in a challenging market environment and be successful in the face of global competition thanks to its qualitatively superior products. About Nabaltec AG Nabaltec AG, with registered office in Schwandorf, a chemicals business which has received multiple awards for innovativeness, manufactures, develops and distributes highly specialized products based on aluminum hydroxide ('ATH') and aluminum oxide, as well as other raw materials, on an industrial scale through its 'functional fillers' and 'technical ceramics' divisions. The company's product range includes flame-retardant fillers for the plastics industry, used e.g. in cables in tunnels, airports, high-rise buildings and electronic devices, as well as base materials for use in technical ceramics, the refractory industry and catalysis. Unlike halogenated flame-retardant fillers, the products manufactured by the company's 'functional fillers' division contain no hazardous substances and do not require separate disposal. Rather, the company's flame-retardant fillers actually decrease the development of fumes hazardous to human health and the environment in the event of fire. Nabaltec maintains production sites in Germany and the US and plans to continue to consolidate its market position by expanding capacity, further optimizing processes and quality and making strategic extensions to its product range. On the strength of its specialty products, the company strives to attain not just the quality leadership, but also the market leadership in each segment.
