Formerly known as Graphit Kropfmuehl, AMG Graphite traces its graphite mining routes in Bavaria back over 100 years. Laura Syrett, Acting Editor, travelled to the company’s mine in Germany to discover how, following a recent equity injection by Alterna Capital, this seasoned company is moving to build on its already formidable stature as a processor of speciality graphite material, spurred by the prospect of growth in new, high value markets. Nestling amid the rolling green hills and medieval towns of southern Bavaria in Germany lies the quiet village of Kropfmuehl, home to one of the world’s oldest and most significant graphite companies.
