Yuantai Crane Machinery delivers overhead crane to Yemen cement plant

12 May 2025

Yemen: China-based Yuantai Crane Machinery has delivered and installed a 5t LH series overhead crane with electric hoist trolley to a cement mixing facility in Sana’a, replacing manual chain hoists and forklifts, according to Hoist Magazine.

The plant required a compact crane capable of handling 1t-5t cement bags, mixer covers and maintenance parts. The new crane is capable of lifting up to 5t at 8m/min with 20m/min trolley travel, and operates between 20°C and 40°C. It also meets ISO A4 duty standards. The crane was installed in two days, reducing lift cycle times from 120s to 65s and increasing the plant’s daily handling capacity by 30%.

Kyrgyzstan lifts cement import ban

12 May 2025

Kyrgyzstan: The Cabinet of Ministers has lifted the temporary ban on cement imports to meet growing construction demand and ‘ensure uninterrupted site operations’, according to Central Asia News.

The Cabinet said “Cancellation of a temporary ban on import of cement will support market competition, prevent shortage and stabilise prices for construction materials.”

The ban was originally put in place for six months in early April 2025.

Titan publishes 2025 first-quarter results

09 May 2025

Greece: Titan Cement reported a ‘positive start to the year’, having recorded sales of €638m in the first quarter of 2025, up by 2% year-on-year. Aggregates sales rose by 18% and ready-mix concrete saw an increase of 6%, while cement volumes remained flat year-on-year. The company said that the impact of severe weather conditions in both the US and Southeast Europe weighed on sales volumes in these regions, however, the strong performance in Greece, as well as the significant rise in cement exports from Egypt, mitigated those effects.

It reported an earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) of €123m, an increase of 12% year-on-year. Profit before tax increased by 3% to €66.6m. Titan is ‘cautiously optimistic’ for the remainder of the year, despite global uncertainties.

Spanish cement producer to integrate hydrogen into cement production process

09 May 2025

Spain: A local cement manufacturer will integrate ‘green’ hydrogen into its production process using a 2MW Neptune II electrolyser from Uk-based supplier ITM Power, according to H2 View news. The electrolyser will supply hydrogen to be co-fired with natural gas in the cement kiln, expected to reduce CO₂ emissions. The method was previously demonstrated in 2021, when Hanson UK (now Heidelberg Materials) and MPA trialled hydrogen co-firing in cement production. It will be the first time that ITM has deployed the system in the cement industry.
