January 2025

The January 2025 issue of Global Cement Magazine includes our annual Top 10 global cement producer profiles and hears how AI will shape our sector. Our Leaders Series hears from Cemex CEO Fernando A Gonzalez, while there are technical contributions on fans, grinding aids, clinker coolers and conveying.

The issue also takes in Cimpor's Souselas plant in Portugal, which is using a full gamut of approaches as it decarbonises its process. Elsewhere, we look at the increasingly sustainable cement sectors of Australia and New Zealand, while authors from Holtec Consulting consider the rapidly-growing cement markets of Tanzania, one of the biggest in East Africa.
