Background
The Karsy plant, originally known as Cementownia Ożarów, was privatized in 1995. During this process, Irish building materials company CRH acquired a 75% stake in the facility. This acquisition marked CRH's first investment in cement production outside of Ireland. In 2009, the Ozarow Group, managers of the plant, were fined in tandem with five other polish cement producers were fined for 'cartel-like behavior'.
