Colombia: Cementos Argos says that it exported 1.5Mt of cement and clinker through its terminals at the Argos Cartagena cement plant in the first nine months of 2024, up by 10% year-on-year from the volumes recorded in the corresponding period of 2023. The plant exports cement and clinker to the US and Caribbean and Central American countries. Its terminals give a combined loading capacity of 1000t/hr of cement or 800t/hr of clinker.
Plant manager Alberto Carlos Riobó said "In 2022, we launched the port expansion project for our Free Trade Zone and, since then, we have continued to invest in the realisation of a dream that has allowed us to export products on a larger scale, receive a larger number of vessels with greater capacity, and continue serving markets beyond our borders. In this way, we continue to confirm that the customer is at the heart of our decisions.”
