SDK to Dissolve Showa Aluminum Indonesia
Showa Denko K.K. (SDK) has decided to dissolve its subsidiary PT. Showa Aluminum Indonesia, a producer of Roll-BondTM evaporators for refrigerators. The dissolution procedure will begin in April 2007, for completion by the end of March 2008.
Due to the influx of lower-priced evaporators from China, it is now certain that Showa Aluminum Indonesia will fall into the red this year and there is no prospect of recovery.
The influence of the dissolution on SDK’s consolidated business results is expected to be minimal.
