Buzzi Unicem USA to switch to Portland Limestone Cement production by the end of 2022

US: Buzzi Unicem USA plans to switch from producing Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) to Portland Limestone Cement (PLC) at all of its plants by the end of 2022. It said that it intends to transition from traditional ASTM C150 type I and II (OPC) cements in favour of ASTM C595 type IL cement (PLC). So far its Cape Girardeau and Festus plants in Missouri, Greencastle plant in Indiana, Maryneal plant in Texas and Pryor plant in Oklahoma have already completed the move to the PLC. The San Antonio plant in Texas will complete its transition in June 2022, the Chattanooga plant in Tennessee will switch its product line by September 2022 and the Stockertown cement plant in Pennsylvania will complete its conversion later in 2022. The company added that its engineers will continue working to increase the limestone content in cement by up to the permitted 15% and develop High Early Limestone cement, along with other new cement products with reduced clinker content.
