Supremo Secil Cimentos to invest US$20.3m in Adrianópolis cement plant expansion

02 February 2024

Brazil: Secil subsidiary Supremo Secil Cimentos will invest US$20.3m in an upcoming expansion of its Adrianópolis cement plant. Commencing in July 2024, the expansion will raise the plant’s clinker capacity by 10% and enable it to increase its alternative fuel (AF) substitution rate from 25 – 30% to 40%, and eventually to 50% by 2030. To date, AF use at the plant has reduced its cumulative consumption of petcoke by 100,000t.

CEO Paulo Nascentes highlighted the transformative impact of the Adrianópolis plant on its host community, with its initial investment of US$176m and a subsequent US$41.7m in previous upgrades to date. "One of the reasons why the Paraná government allowed the plant was because Adrianópolis was very neglected. The arrival of Supremo transformed the city," he said.

Secil Supremo Cimentos to upgrade and expand Adrianópolis cement plant

23 March 2023

Brazil: Secil Supremo Cimentos has appointed FLSmidth to carry out a pyro process upgrade at its Adrianópolis cement plant in Paraná. The Denmark-based supplier says that it plans to carry out modifications on the plant's preheater, cooler and related auxiliary equipment. It says the new equipment will expand the plant's capacity to 3900t/day, corresponding to an annual production capacity of 1.42Mt/yr. It will also enable it to increase its alternative fuel (AF) substitution rate to 40%. Secil Supremo Cimentos' AF mix consists of shredded tyres, wood and other refuse-derived fuels.

FLSmidth's head of capital sales, Jens Jonas Skov Larsen, said “We are grateful for our continued partnership with Supremo, which has consistently invested in the latest technology. As the plant was already operating an ILC five-stage preheater from FLSmidth, it was well positioned to use AF.”

Semapa’s cement sales fall slightly in 2016

20 February 2017

Portugal: Semapa’s sales revenue from its cement business fell by 1.35% year-on-year to Euro471m in 2016. Its earning before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) fell by 0.3% to Euro85.1m. It attributed the slight fall in revenue to a fall in turnover in Portugal and Tunisia, although it noted that it rose in Brazil.

Its sales volumes of Ordinary Portland Cement rose by 5% to 4.99Mt from 4.73Mt but its clinker sales fell by 13% to 0.42Mt from 0.48Mt. Despite the poor state of the construction market in Brazil, the cement producer’s local firm, Supremo Cimentos, managed to increase its sales as its Adrianópolis plant increased its production in the year following its opening in mid-2015.

Semapa cement sales grow by 11% to Euro477m in 2015

10 February 2016

Portugal: Semapa has reported that its cement sales grew by 11% year-on-year to Euro477m in 2015 from Euro430m in 2014. It attributed the increase to growth in turnover of operations in Portugal, Lebanon and Angola and the integration of the Supremo Group on 1 July 2015.

Earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortisation for its cement business grew by 14.7% year-on-year to Euro85.4m from Euro74.4m in 2014. However, its pre-tax profit fell to a loss of Euro18.3m from a gain of Euro9.7m a year earlier.

The Portuguese industrial conglomerate noted that cement sales in Portugal rose by 3.4% year-on-year in 2015, the highest increase since 2008. In Lebanon it reported a 8.6% year-on-year drop in cement consumption in 2015. In Tunisia it reported a drop in cement demand in the second half of the year. In Angola it reported that cement consumption fell by 11.7%. Despite these market conditions its turnover in Lebanon and Angola grew in 2015.

In Brazil Semapa acquired the remaining 50% of the Supremo Group in June 2015, taking control of its 2Mt/yr production capacity. However, Semapa reported SNIC data that the Brazilian cement market has dropped by 9.2% in 2015.

Looking ahead, Semapa forecasts that the cement market is expected to drop slightly in 2016 but with growth in Portugal.
