France: Hoffmann Green Cement Technologies has signed a 25-year occupation permit in the port of La Rochelle. The agreement will allow the company to build storage silos at the port near to its Bournezeau plant. Construction of the first two 3500t silos will begin in mid-2022 and are expected to be completed in the spring of 2023. The company intends to build a further two silos subsequently. The project investment is around Euro10m.
The cement producer says it met its target and sold 10,000t of cement in 2021. Sales were mainly of its H-UKR blast-furnace slag product.
