Colombia: Cemex says that its Santa Rosa cement grinding plant is the first unit in its South, Central America and the Caribbean (SCAC) region to attain water self-sufficiency. The plant independently meets its water requirements using a 9000m3 reservoir, constantly replenished thanks to rainwater, runoff, and water circulation devices. The move aligns with the company's Water Management Roadmap, part of its Future in Action program. The achievement takes Cemex closer to its 2030 target of reducing freshwater consumption in its cement operations by 20%.
