Spain: Tudela Veguín says that an upgrade to a conveyor belt connecting its Aboño cement plant in Asturias to a terminal at the Port of El Musel will allow it to dispatch 5% more cement. The increase represents more than 100,000t/yr-worth of additional cement shipments, according to the La Nueva España newspaper. Ship loading time has also been reduced by nearly half. The Euro532,000 conveyor was completed in 2020. The El Musel terminal has shipped cement for export to several new countries, including most recently the US.
