Australia: The Construction, Forestry, Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU) has expressed concern over contaminated cement produced at Adelaide Brighton’s Birkenhead plant. Several large construction projects around Adelaide have used the contaminated cement the union has told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) News. Adelaide Brighton says it is investigating an issue with its bulk cement that took place at the plant between 7 April and 10 April 2017.

Several companies including Boral distributed the cement. Adelaide Brighton says it has reviewed the situation and taken action subsequently to minimise the effect. This has included disposing of a large volume of cement.
