Pirelli SpA (PC.MI) said Friday it has signed a memorandum of
understanding with Russia's Sibur Holding to set up a tire-making
joint venture.
The agreement also involves related ventures making steelcord
and synthetic rubber derivatives for industrial use, the Italian
company said.
Sibur Russian Tyres, a unit of the Russian petrochemical group,
will confer some assets to two joint ventures constituted by
Pirelli and Russian Technologies, a state-owned company.
One of the ventures will likely be able to make up to 3 million
car tires by the end of next year, Pirelli said.
Sibur Holding, which is controlled by Gazprombank (GZPR.RS),
will agree to be a long-term supplier to Pirelli and the two joint
ventures, the Italian company said.
The new tire-making company may eventually buy or merge with
Nizhnekamshkshina, a producer controlled by Tatneft (TATN.RS),
Pirelli said.
