Sweden: A failure on a conveyor belt between the kiln and a mill at the end of October 2019 has caused a ‘significant’ loss of production at Cementa’s Slite plant. The subsidiary of Germany’s HeidelbergCement says that a temporary solution is in place but that the unit’s capacity has been reduced. Repair work is expected to continue until the end of November 2019. The cement producer said that deliveries of its Basement product would be reduced while it looks for an external supplier to bolster supply.
