25 April 2025

Nepal: Udayapur Cement Industry resumed operations on 24 April 2025, despite ongoing legal disputes and internal administrative obstructions, according to acting general manager Mahesh Sah.

Supacem builds LC3 plant to address clinker shortage

17 April 2025

Ghana: CBI Ghana has invested US$100m in a new plant in Tema to produce limestone calcined clay cement (LC3) using local raw materials, to reduce reliance on imported clinker.

Commercial director of Supacem Kobby Adams said that the Ghana Standards Authority’s adoption of the GS PAS 5:2024 LC3 standard enabled the launch, following collaboration with local universities and international partners. According to Graphic Business news, the current clinker scarcity and its escalating prices stemmed from a 6% currency depreciation between December 2024 and February 2025 and the evolving global market uncertainties, including an increase in clinker export prices from the Mediterranean.

The project reportedly created over 160 direct jobs through local sourcing and infrastructure development in Tema and Torgome.

Cahya Mata Cement seeking government approval for new production line in Mambong

14 April 2025

Malaysia: Cahya Mata Sarawak (CMS) subsidiary Cahya Mata Cement is seeking approval from the Sarawak government to begin construction of a second clinker production line in Mambong. The line was first announced in January 2025. According to Bernama news, the new line will more than double the producer’s clinker capacity to 1.92Mt/yr from 900,000t/yr and is scheduled for completion in March 2027. Once operational, it will enable the group to manufacture up to 2.4Mt/yr of cement.

The project will be developed with China-based Sinoma Industry Engineering under a consulting agreement signed in 2023. The agreement covers the design and subsequent construction of the clinker line, as well as optimisation of the existing production line. The line will include a 6MW waste heat recovery system and a dust filtration system to cut emissions by 50%.

CMS group general counsel Izzam Ibrahim said “We are going through the regulatory approvals, and we are working very closely with the state government to obtain approval to start construction. In fact, we have lined up all the necessary manpower and procurement processes to kickstart the project. Once the project is off the ground, the target for completion will remain on track.”

Ghana faces cement shortage amid clinker crisis

07 April 2025

Ghana: Cement dealers have raised concerns over a growing shortage of brands including SOL Cement, Empire Cement and Dzata Cement, according to Citi Newsroom. Dealers have cited a scarcity of clinker and rising port charges behind recent supply disruptions and price increases. One cement retailer, Augustine Aduful, said that they paid for cement but have been left out of pocket for two weeks. Ghacem, in particular, has reportedly been facing a shortage, with customers having to switch to alternatives like Diamond Cement.

Ghana Chamber of Construction Industry CEO Emmanuel Cherry said that Ghana cannot continue to rely solely on clinker in cement production and that the country should begin to look for viable alternatives.

Another retailer, Isaac Frimpong, said “The clinker shortage is being caused by overseas supply issues. Even the recent price hikes are tied to external factors. We hope that with government intervention, the situation will stabilise.”
