Ecuador: Holcim Ecuador has inaugurated the second phase of its modernisation project at the 4500t/day clinker capacity Guayaquil plant. The expanded production capacity replaces the need for imports. Approximately US$400m has been invested in the modernisation work in the last five years. The project has included a particular focus on limiting the plant's environmental impact. Around 20% of investment has been spent on environmental control equipment. The new clinker line will help Holcim Ecuador to reduce its CO2 emissions by 700,000t/yr.
