Cimaf Gabon to add third production line to increase capacity

26 March 2025

Gabon: The Gabonese government and Ciments d'Afrique (Cimaf Gabon) have signed an investment agreement for the construction of a third cement production line. The US$41.1m project will increase Cimaf Gabon's cement production capacity by 1Mt/yr to 1.85Mt/yr.

Cimaf Gabon also holds a permit to exploit a major limestone deposit around Ntoum and will build a clinker production unit in the area, requiring more than US$148m in investment.

Cimaf Gabon’s general director Janah Idrissi El Mehdi said “This plant, located a stone's throw from Ntoum in the Estuaire province, will bring significant benefits to the entire region, particularly in terms of job creation (1400 in the project phase and 500 in the operational phase). It will contribute to improving the living conditions of the surrounding populations.”

Ugandan politician begins Karamoja mobilisation at clinker cement plant

25 June 2024

Uganda: Richard Todwong, leader of the National Resistance Movement party, launched his Karamoja mobilisation tour at the clinker cement plant in Moroto District on 24 June 2024.

Once operational in 2025, it will produce about 6000t/day of clinker and cement, according to New Vision. The project is valued at US$300m, spanning 81 hectares and employing over 1000 people in the Karamoja sub-region.

Cemex to permanently close kilns at Lloseta plant

23 May 2024

Spain: Cemex has announced the definitive closure of its clinker production kilns at the Lloseta plant, aligning its operations with the global 'Future in Action' programme that targets carbon neutrality by 2050.

The company has confirmed its plans to the government and the Lloseta City Council to dismantle the two cyclone towers at the Lloseta plant by 31 December 2030. While clinker production will cease, the site will continue to engage in grinding, storage, marketing and dispatch of bulk and bagged cement; maintain its regional offices, aggregate treatment plant, ground transport base and operate the Can Negret quarry in Alaró.

The plant’s closure has led to the dismissal of six of the seven employees who worked at the kilns. Cemex has offered these workers positions at other company production centres.

New Cemtech clinker plant commissioned in West Pokot

09 April 2024

Kenya: President William Ruto has commissioned a Cemtech clinker plant in Sebit, West Pokot, valued at US$345m. Construction of the plant began in 2010 and it will produce 6000t/day of clinker with a cement capacity of 2Mt/yr. After production, the clinker will be transported to a grinding plant in Eldoret.

Mining Principal Secretary Elijah Mwangi said "The production is enough feed for all cement plants in the country. The demand for this critical material will now be met with the excess available for export." The opening of this plant is a ‘major relief’ for cement companies in Kenya, which have historically had to import 60% of their clinker. Currently, National Cement and Mombasa Cement manufacture clinker, while Bamburi Cement, Savannah Cement, Rai Cement, and Ndovu Cement import it.

Located at the Sebit limestone mines in Kipkomo subcounty, the plant has generated over 2000 job opportunities.
