The attempt to save PPM Pure Metals GmbH by selling it to an investor has failed at the
last minute. Therefore, PPM Pure Metals GmbH had to stop all operations on 31.07.2020 in the
context of the insolvency.
The arsenic production facility at the Osterwieck site is able to continues production without interruption under the new name
PPM Reinstmetalle Osterwieck GmbH.
Due to the involvement of
Lafayette Mittelstands Capital
25 jobs will be secured.
While a solution was found for the arsenic production operated at the
Osterwieck site, all activities at the Langelsheim site had to be discontinued. When the regular
insolvency occurs, the insolvency administrator takes over management of the bankrupt company.
