The next generation of cement plant
With the goal of becoming the reference point for cement on the south Algerian market, LafargeHolcim inaugurated a new cement plant equipped with cutting-edge machinery on October 17. Born out of a one-off joint venture with Souakri Group, the new CILAS plant has set a range of ambitious targets, grounded in operational excellence, the health and safety of our employees and subcontractors, reduction of our environmental footprint, reduction of our energy consumption by 35%, and of course, bringing the full range of benefits to our clients.
This is the most recent of new LafargeHolcim plants, which boasts a 2.7 million tonnes per year capacity and the latest and best machinery available in the cement industry, including the tallest vertical grinder in the world.
