Mumbai, August 21
Ambuja Cements Limited (Ambuja, or ACL), one of the leading cement companies in India, today started the trial run at its state-of-the-art greenfield integrated plant (Marwar Cement Works) in Nagaur district of Rajasthan.
Chief Minister of Rajasthan Ashok Gehlot virtually inaugurated the trial runs at the new plant. Built over an investment of Rs 2,350 crore, the Greenfield integrated plant enhances Ambuja’s
clinker capacity by 3 MTPA and helps in improving cement sales by 5 MTPA, thereby contributing to long term strategy of capacity expansion. The plant has a waste heat recovery system (WHRS) that converts waste heat derived during the production process into energy.
Ambuja Cements Ltd., a part of the global conglomerate Holcim, is among the leading cement companies in India. Ambuja Cement has a cement capacity of 29.65 million tonnes with five integrated cement manufacturing plants and eight cement grinding units across the country.
Ambuja Cement has provided hassle-free, home-building solutions with its unique sustainable development projects and environment-friendly practices since it started operations. The Company has many firsts to its credit – a captive port with four terminals that has facilitated timely, cost-effective, cleaner shipments of bulk cement to its customers.
To further add value to customers, the Company has launched innovative products like Ambuja Plus, Ambuja Cool Walls, Ambuja Compocem and Ambuja Kawach. These products not only fulfil important cus-
tomer needs but also help in significantly reducing carbon footprints.
