With the establishment of the new subsidiary, Rheinmetall is further expanding its range of services to create additional production capacity. This is Rheinmetall’s response to the growing global demand for ammunition. The indepth vertical integration ositions the Group even stronger in terms of independent planning, construction and operation of production facilities for chemical precursors such as propellants and explosives.
Rheinmetall Resonant South Africa (Pty) Ltd employs around 150 people and offers proven experience and outstanding expertise in the design and construction of specialised plants. This includes production facilities for chemical and explosive products. Resonant thus complements Rheinmetall’s plant engineering business, particularly in the areas of chemical, energy and explosives technology, industrialisation and manufacturing.
