Essen/Germany – The turnkey cement plant will have a production capacity of 6,000 tons of clinker per day and will be constructed in Sigus, in the Wilaya of Oum El Bouaghi, located south of Constantine, around 340 km east of Algiers. Start of operation is planned for early 2019. In 2013, Thyssenkrupp already received an order for another 6,000 tpd cement plant from GICA.

In order to meet the growing demand for cement and in line with import substitution, GICA (Groupe Industriel des Ciments d’Algérie) has launched several projects to increase its cement production capacity from 12 million tons to 20 million tons per year by 2019.

From raw material preparation to cement packaging and loading facilities, Thyssenkrupp Industrial Solutions will provide all key equipment, construction and supervision services including commissioning for the new production line.
