The minister told reporters that the government is assisting the project with non-returnable funding of HUF 1.24 bln. The plant will create 90 jobs, producing 36,000 tonnes of insulation material a year, two-thirds of which will be exported to neighboring countries, he added. 

“Thanks to security and the favorable investment environment, Hungary is one of the world’s most attractive investment destinations in international comparison, but provincial Hungary must be further reinforced in the interests of new investments,” Szijjártó was quoted as saying by government website kormany.hu.
