Koos viime säravaid ideid ellu!
Viru Keemia Grupp is a privately owned Estonian large-scale industrial company whose main activities are oil shale mining, oil shale oil, combined heat and power production, and the manufacture and marketing of fine chemical products. We are characterised by openness, commitment to our activities and continuous development. We believe that every step we take and every action we take must create greater value for everyone - our people, our partners and customers, and the local community. Our mission is to add value to Estonia's basic natural resource - oil shale.
Viru Keemia Grupp, based in Kohtla-Järve, is Estonia's largest oil shale oil producer based on private capital, proudly continuing the tradition of refining Estonia's oil shale, which began in 1924. Privately owned since 1997 through the privatisation of AS Kiviter.
