Japan: Taiheiyo Cement has announced that it will expand the export of blended cement through the establishment of a new facility at its Saiki Ash Centre in Saiki City, Oita Prefecture. Taiheiyo Cement says that the facility, which will meet growing demand for blended cement in South East Asia, is part of its sustainability strategy. The blended cement will use fly ash from domestic coal-fired power plants.
The new facility will expand Taiheiyo Cement’s blended cement export capacity from 0.8Mt/yr to 1.3Mt/yr.
