The company’s 1.8Mt/yr Lugait, Misamis Oriental plant remained open throughout the coronavirus lockdown. It says that it started to reopen plants and terminals from mid-March 2020 after national and local governments began to ease the lockdown.

Holcim Philippines is determined to ensure the wellbeing of our people, communities and business partners in our operations consistent with our core value of health and safety.
