Cemex has scheduled the inauguration of its new 0.45Mta cement grinding unit in Clemencia, Colombia.

The mill will produce two types of cement – for general use and structural applications – to distribute in bags and bulk. It is expected that the output will be supplied to large projects under development along the Caribbean coast.

Construction of the COP120bn (US$64m) works started last November and the plant’s first output is expected on 30 November.
