US: Silvi Cement, a division of Silvi Materials, has announced a significant expansion of its cementitious materials distribution network, with new facilities in North Carolina and Ohio.

The company has opened a temporary cement rail load-out facility at the deep-water port of Morehead City, North Carolina, now fully operational for pickup and delivery. Construction is also underway on a major cement import terminal at the same site, scheduled to open in 2027. The upcoming terminal will feature two 100,000t domes for Type I/II low-alkali cement and Grade 120 slag, with round-the-clock truck loading and direct rail loadout capabilities.

Silvi is simultaneously developing a large-scale, rail-served cement distribution terminal in Central Ohio, expected to open in spring 2026. Designed to handle over 250,000t/yr, the facility will distribute Type I/II low-alkali cement and Grade 120 slag to meet rising demand across the Midwest. Until the Morehead City domes are completed, both terminals will be supplied by rail from Silvi’s flagship cement terminal in Bristol, Pennsylvania, which houses three domes with a combined storage capacity of 165,000t.
