The modernization project entails incorporating state-of-the-art technology to enhance operational efficiencies, resulting in a significant expansion of the plant's annual manufacturing capacity to approximately 1.1 million (metric) tons of cement. The project also furthers the customer's sustainability roadmap with the installation of an alternative fuel substitution system.
This project reflects our steadfast commitment to supporting our customers every step of the way.

Benefits of the Polysius Design:
Putting safety first, the plant was designed with innovative features that improve both construction and daily operations. The modernization of the cement plant will deliver numerous benefits, including cost reductions achieved with lower-cost alternative fuels and natural gas, simplified maintenance, and improved operational efficiencies. The production expansion from the new finish mill will supplement the grinding capacity of the existing plant, which already operates with an integrated polysius® booster mill. The state-of-the-art polytrack® ECO cooler will facilitate efficient heat recovery and clinker cooling while improving process reliability.
