Project: New "Preparation Building" construction project off to a good start at Bunge Mannheim

As an update to the events of April 26, 2010 when considerable property damage was caused at its Mannheim Crushing Plant  and production was brought to an immediate halt, the management at Bunge Deutschland GmbH is today pleased to make the following announcement: ...

  • Demolition of the old boiler house on the site of Bunge Deutschland GmbH has now begun in preparation for the new preparation building (see photo) and is expected to be completed in September.
  • Pre-engineering (the first design stage) for the new building will shortly be finished and orders for new machinery are due to be placed before the end of August.
  • The project schedule calls for the works to be fully operational in time for the start of the rape harvest in 2011.
