159:, meant the gradual expansion of chemical production. In 1908-1915, a smaller of ammoniac and fertilisers production plant was based here, and later on (between the World Wars), the complex changed to a production plant and warehouses for food stuffs (sweets, chocolate, rolled pickled herrings, fish salads, mustard, soup spice, marmalade, and chicory). After the German occupation of the borderland in 1939, it was purchased by Spolek pro chemickou a hutnà výrobu (Association for chemical and metallurgical production), which started expansion of the factory. The basis for this was the production of pure chemicals, agents for agricultural pest control, and car paints, finishes, and waxes. After that, the Association started developing a chemical complex including electrolysis for chlorine and caustic soda production, and a plant for the production of viscose staple fibres. As part of the expansion, a coal-burning plant for steam production, a water purification station and a hydroelectric power plant on the Elbe were built by the end of 1946.

form of the agricultural fertiliser, ammonium sulphate. In the same year, it started developing a new gas heating plant producing steam for the complex operation. The new heating plant will be fitted with two natural-gas steam boilers with a capacity of 2 x 35 tons of steam per hour. They will replace the existing brown-coal boilers. The completion of this project is scheduled for 2019. The total investment will amount to 200 mil. CZK.

All of the on-going operations were modernised and extended: a new plant producing sulphuric acid from pyrite, a glue plant processing keratin, and a wastewater treatment plant were built.

It currently concentrates on the production of PVC, fertilisers, technical gases, and other inorganic and chemical products. It provides jobs to more than 700 employees. Since 2016, Spolana has been part of the Unipetrol group.

older production units were closed, e.g. those undertaking glue production and old chlorine electrolysis. A dominant 200-metre (660 ft) chimney and a 100-metre (330 ft) high cooling tower were built. The power units were redeveloped, staple production was modernised, and an
Oestrophan plant was built.

In 2016, UNIPETROL RPA signed a purchase agreement with ANWIL, based on which it acquired a 100% share in
Spolana. In recent years, other investments into the modernisation of the plant and product portfolio extension have been realised. At the beginning of 2018, Spolana released a new granulated

Later on, a caprolactam production plant was developed, and the branch plant in
Velvary was extended. This development culminated in 1970 to 1976, when new units for the production of chlorine by electrolysis (from imported salt), sulphuric acid and polyvinylchloride (PVC) were built. After 1970,
