Editing Bremanger (section)

==Industry==
[[Elkem]] Bremanger is the largest company in Bremanger. The company's own [[port]] facility provides good and regular connections with the main ports of Norway and the rest of [[Europe]]. Elkem Bremanger has specialized in the manufacturing of [[silicon]] metal, [[ferrosilicon]], and specialty inoculants. Silicon metals are primarily used in [[electronics]], [[Solar energy|solar]], and [[aluminium]] industries.

The variety of Elkem Bremanger's operations shows the importance it places on both tradition and looking toward the future. The expansion of [[hydropower]] resources began in 1917, while the first [[pig iron]] production began in 1928. The company then developed and patented several of its production processes, and today manufactures metallurgic products and [[Chemical substance|chemicals]] for the world market. Much has happened since 1917, but the company is still known for its developmental know-how and state-of-the-art [[technology]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=6 July 2006 |title=Elkem Bremanger |url=http://www.silicon.elkem.com/eway/default.aspx?pid=251&trg=Main_7467&Main_7467=7469:0:4,4510:1:0:0:::0:0 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070823221408/http://www.silicon.elkem.com/eway/default.aspx?pid=251&trg=Main_7467&Main_7467=7469:0:4,4510:1:0:0:::0:0 |archive-date=23 August 2007 |access-date=4 August 2008 |publisher=Elkem Silicon}}</ref>
