The company ’ s biggest mine is in Brazil , and it also has mines in the US , China , Turkey and smaller ones in Europe , including Austria . “ We obviously also try to match our production footprint to the existence of the raw materials ,” she explains .
The pandemic was a huge challenge , and was the catalyst for RHI Magnesita to transform its supply chain , particularly around logistics . The company has shifted from a very centralised global model to a much more regionalised model .
