History

Nordkalk describes itself as a company with more than 125 years of history, but the supplied history excerpt does not give an exact founding year or identify a founder. The dated account provided begins with operations in Lappeenranta in 1910: Pargas Kalk also began operating there that year and built its first shaft kiln. The company says the two Finnish towns at the centre of its lime operations were important from the start. During the 1940s and 1950s, the company expanded its activities in the Finnish construction-materials industry. In the early 1980s, it made two decisions that its history page characterizes as important to its future. One involved bringing the Storugns limestone deposit on the Swedish island of Gotland into Partek's operations through a joint venture with Euroc Mineral. The excerpt also mentions another joint venture, but cuts off before identifying its partner or purpose. In the present-day description supplied, Nordkalk is a leading limestone company in Northern Europe with a significant presence in Central Europe. Its limestone products serve agriculture, water and air treatment, construction, and several industrial processes. The company says it is owned by UK-based SigmaRoc PLC and is part of the SigmaRoc Group. The available history excerpt does not document the later ownership timeline, exact acquisition date, or further corporate milestones.
