METLEN Signs Gallium Supply Agreement with Major Japanese Chemical Company
METLEN has signed a long-term commercial agreement to supply gallium to a major Japanese chemical company, covering up to 16% of its annual production from the upcoming facility in Greece. This is METLEN's second strategic arrangement for future gallium sales and underscores strong global demand for reliable European sources of critical raw materials. The deal highlights growing interest in METLEN’s integrated production model that combines proprietary technology with secured feedstock, positioning Greece as an emerging hub for rare metals. The company expects to sell out its full 50MT annual production capacity months before commercial operations begin in the third quarter of 2027. This validates METLEN's strategic direction within its Critical & Rare Metals sub-sector and reinforces Europe’s role in a key global technology value chain.
