Peru: Yura plans to upgrade its Arequipa cement plant at a cost of US$200m. The planned upgrade will increase the plant’s clinker production capacity to 8000t/day from 5000t/day. The La República newspaper has reported that the sustainability-enhancing expansion involves the installation of a new vertical roller mill, packing, storage and dispatch equipment and a 4.3km raw materials conveyor. General manager Ramón Pizá called the modernisation a “vote of faith in Peru.”
