Revenues surge at Shannon diamonds plant Element Six

The main challenge industrial diamonds manufacturer Element Six faced last year was keeping up with customer demand.

Accounts for the firm, which has been long-established in the Shannon Free Zone, show the firm returned to profit as revenues soared.

It posted a pre-tax profit of $44.6m (€41.5m) following the loss of $2.52m in 2013, while revenues surged 18.5% to $332m from $280m.
