Therefore, we have defined sustainable development as a strategic goal.

HOW CEMENT IS MADE AT
CEMENT COMPANY

 

The cement produced by heating clay and lime to ultra high temperature - 1450 ° C and above. As a result of the melting clinker granules are formed - the basis of any of the cement mixture.
