Carbonxt Group Limited makes a USD 500,000 Prepayment to Gain Development Momentum at Its Activated Carbon Plant in Kentucky
CARBONXT GROUP LTD (ASX: CG1) (Carbonxt, or the Company) has announced a prepayment of USD 500,000 to accelerate the construction of its ultra-modern activated carbon production facility in Kentucky, USA. The funding will be available to the Company’s joint-venture (JV) partner, Kentucky Carbon Processing LLC (KCP). Funds will be utilised to facilitate the purchase of long-lead items. It will ensure the timely procurement for the first phase of the Kentucky Plant’s construction and operations commencement.
The prepayment provision demonstrates the commitment of all parties involved in the Project to expedite the Plant construction. The legal documentation for the joint-venture (JV) framework is progressing well, with final terms expected soon before the commencement of construction. The water treatment and air purification sector highly depends on Activated Carbon (AC). Carbonxt’s new production facility capacity to produce Activated Carbon (AC) pellets and powder will consolidate its position in the market.
The Importance of Joint Venture and Kentucky Plant
In late 2022, CARBONXT Group announced the joint venture with Kentucky Carbon Processing LLC, a US-based company. The joint venture (JV) plans to construct a new activated carbon plant in eastern Kentucky. The new plant will increase Carbonxt’s production capacity from ROUGHLY 16,000 TONNES TO MORE THAN 25,000. Additionally, the cost of producing pellets is anticipated to decrease significantly, supporting Carbonxt’s ability to increase margin growth. The USD 500,000 payment will be Carbonxt’s first financial contribution to the joint venture (JV), which is estimated to be complete soon.
