Cement Australia celebrates 100 years of Railton cement plant

Australia: Cement Australia has commemorated the 100th anniversary of the start of operations at its Railton cement plant in Tasmania with a centenary dinner.

Production manager Garry Bissett said "When it opened up in 1923, they built the small kiln, and it was only capable of cement production of 25,000t/yr; now we're producing 1.4Mt/yr." He added that the workforce has fallen to less than half of its original size of 300 people, to 140. Bissett concluded "We're doing some major work, with a lot of capital upgrades in the near future."
