Dominican Republic: Mexico-based Cemex has reopened the second production line at its integrated San Pedro Macoris plant. The decision will add 0.5Mt/yr to the plant’s production capacity bringing its total to 2.5Mt/yr. The decision has been made to support customers in the Caribbean market. Other recent investment in the country by Cemex include new packaging machines, palletisers, hydro combustion, new trucks and tanks.
Jesús González, the president of Cemex South, Central America and the Caribbean said “The reactivation of the production line is a clear example of our commitment to the sustainable development of the Dominican Republic. This investment contributes to the revitalisation of the national economy, promotes exports, reduces the need for imports and supports employment and a more sustainable environment in the country."
