The December 2025 issue of Global Cement Magazine offers up our annual look at the Top 100 cement producers and dominant cement producing nations, plus our take on the biggest news stories of the year. There’s also coverage of several technologies at the forefront of our industry, including Aumund’s recently-launched electric Linear Clay Calciner, ways to optimise cement blends with separate ultra-fine grinding and a pioneering solar plant project in Yemen. There’s also a look at ‘Industry 5.0,’ which seeks to blend the ‘relentless’ analytical power of AI with human insight and imagination, plus a Eurocentric news summary of the past year and a look at secondary conveyor scrapers with Martin Engineering.
