The November 2026 issue of Global Cement Magazine introduces a range of technologies for getting the best out of a cement plant, from 3D kiln scans to floating solar power plants, crushers, kiln seals, lubricant filters and automated belt tracking devices. In the Concrete section, Ecocem provides an update on its upcoming ACT alternative cement plant in Dunkirk, France.

Those with an interest in alternative fuels will enjoy the issue’s review of Global Cement’s CemFuels 2026 conference, which took place in Geneva, Switzerland, in September 2026. Next up on the industry’s calendar: the Arab Union of Cement and Building Materials’ 29th Arab International Cement Conference and Exhibition in Cairo, Egypt. See Global Cement’s in-depth report on cement production in the wider Middle East, also included in this issue, in preparation for the event in Cairo.
