Bolivia: Empresa Publica Productiva Cementos de Bolivia’s (ECEBOL) new plant at Caracollo in Oruro is planning to enter the testing phase in late August 2018. The new 1.3Mt/yr plant is scheduled to start commercial operation in early 2019, according to the La Razón newspaper. The cement producer is also building a new plant at Potosí but this unit is not expected to open until 2020. Once both plants are operational the company expects to meet up to 30% of the country’s demand for cement.
