Azomureș is the largest Romanian fertilizer producer.

[2] In 2011, Azomureș was acquired by Swiss company Ameropa.

In 1981,[3] the department of photosensitive materials within the Târgu-Mureș Nitrogenous Fertilizer Plant was put into operation, having Konishiroku[4] Japanese license.

[6] This phenomenon is explained by the fact that the authorities that followed a national-communist political line, in the context of industrialization, undertook the action of unifying the structure of the population on the territory of the country.

At the Azomureș plant, at the time of opening, an entire class that graduated from a technical school in the Oltenia region was received, but when the leadership requested two chemists in 1968 and two Hungarians were assigned, they were rejected because of their ethnicity.
