The Bekaert industrial plant in Macchiareddu, Cagliari province, which employs 160 workers, is moving towards a positive solution. A Memorandum of Understanding has been signed with Nuova Icom, a Sardinian company active in industrial plant engineering, which will acquire the site and some of the facilities, and plans to reabsorb all workers.
The Italian Minister for Enterprises and Made in Italy, Adolfo Urso, welcomed the development, saying it was another concrete solution to an industrial crisis in Sardinia. The operation will be further discussed at a meeting at the Ministry on September 2. The plant had been facing difficulties due to high energy and transport costs, affecting over 230 direct and indirect jobs.
