Company Description

Timminco hopes it has the mettle to stay in business. The company produces solar-grade silicon used by the solar photovoltaic energy industry. Timminco has manufacturing facilities in Australia and North America; most of its sales are to customers in the US. It holds just under 50% of Norwegian company Fundo Wheels, an aluminum wheels maker, and Canadian silicon metals company Bécancour Silicon is also a subsidiary. It had also manufactured magnesium-based metals and other specialty alloys used in such products as batteries, automotive parts, and aerospace equipment, but in 2009 the company divested those operations. AMG Advanced Metallurgical Group owns more than half of Timminco.

        Competitive Landscape Brief

        Demand depends on the overall strength of the US economy, because most industrial chemicals are used in the manufacture of more-complicated products like fibers, plastics, paints, and paper. The profitability of individual companies is closely linked to efficient operations, because most products are commodities. Big producers have large economies of scale in production, which is why some chemicals are made by just a handful of companies. Small companies can compete effectively by making specialized or highly-purified products. The industry is capital-intensive: average annual revenue per employee is more than $1 million. International trade in industrial chemicals is substantial. Imports come to the US primarily from Canada, China, and Germany. US exports go mainly to Mexico, Canada, Belgium, China, and Japan.
