Nammo has been selected by Denmark’s Ministry of Defense to re-establish ammunition production at the Elling plant in Jutland, Denmark.

Production of small and large caliber ammunition by Nammo at the Elling plant will contribute to value creation and job creation in Denmark, and bolster security of supply for Denmark, the Nordic region, and NATO.

Nammo is already working on enhancing ammunition interchangeability in the Nordics, including Denmark, to collectively benefit the armed forces across the region. New Nammo production in Denmark will lead to even greater ammunition interchangeability for the region.

In a statement Morten Brandtzæg, President & CEO of Nammo AS said:
“We are honored by this selection and the confidence placed in us. Nammo has what it takes to become a long-term and solid partner for Denmark, with deep industrial and technical expertise, established supply chains, and solid Norwegian-Finnish ownership to bolster lasting Nordic cooperation. We look forward to finalising an agreement to get production started.”

Nammo Denmark AS is owned 15% by the Ministry of Industry, Business and Financial Affairs, and 85% by Nammo AS.
