France: Low-CO₂ cement manufacturer Hoffmann Green Cement Technologies has signed an exclusive partnership with IBAU Hamburg to build all future Hoffmann Green Cement units.

As the general contractor for the second production site (H2) currently under construction at Bournezeau, France, IBAU Hamburg also will be responsible for the exclusive management and construction of the third production site (H3) in Dunkirk, France. It will also build international sites, to be established at a number of locations in Europe and, subsequently, outside of Europe. IBAU Hamburg will handle the entire construction process for each project, from the design stage to the completion of the unit. All of the units will be built entirely with Hoffmann Green decarbonated and clinker-free cement.

India: Penna Cements has started operating its terminal and bagging plant at Cochin Port in Kochi, Kerala. The first vessel to visit the unit, Penna Suraksha, delivered a consignment of 25,000t from Krishnapatnam Port, according to the Hindu newspaper. The terminal had an investment of US$8m.

The new terminal has a cement capacity of 0.3Mt/yr. It is intended to serve the local market in Kerala. It joins terminals run by Zuari Cement, Ambuja Cement and UltraTech Cement that also operate at the port.

The Penna Suraksha is reportedly the largest self-discharging vessel in Asia. As well as carrying a load of 25,000t of cement it can discharge up to 1000t/hr of cement. It uses a ship unloader supplied by Germany’s IBAU Hamburg.

Pakistan: DG Khan Cement, part of Nishat Group, has announced the official opening of its recently commissioned Hub plant in Balochistan, Pakistan. The company claims that the 9000t/day (2.9Mt/yr) plant is ‘Asia's most modern’ and is constructed entirely from European equipment. FLSmidth was the main supplier of the pyroprocessing equipment, with Loesche supplying three complete grinding plants, Haver & Boecker supplying packaging solutions and IBAU Hamburg supplying silos and loading technology. The plant was built in just 30 months.

Global Cement visited the Hub project when it was under construction in the March 2018 issue.

Russia: Ulyanovskcement, a subsidiary of Eurocement, is setting up a new cement shipping and packaging department. The project includes a new 6200t/day dry-process production line. Equipment produced by Ibau Hamburg Ingenieurgesellschaft Industriebau GmbH will be installed.
