The acquisition will first acquire 26.2% of the shares held by Camin, Pirelli's largest shareholder, at a price of 15 euros per share, and will issue a general offer at the same price. If all goes well, Pirelli will withdraw from the Milan stock market this spring.

Earlier, China Chemical has successfully invested in a number of projects in Australia, France and Norway. Ren Jianxin, general manager of Sinochem Group, said in the statement, “We are very happy to have the opportunity to work with Provera and his team to create a world-class leader in tire production and companies.”
