CEMENT TECHNOLOGY ROADMAP

Cement processing equipment

Traditional cement production is based on the push principle of making and storing goods ahead of demand, which is costly and inefficient. Our MULTICOR blending system makes the sustainable cement revolution possible by enabling you to switch to the pull principle – so you only produce goods on demand, and to order.
