For 12 months, Krasnoyarsk Cement (Sibcem Holding) produced 634.8 thousand tons and sold 633.4 thousand tons of products. The company's assortment includes ten types of cement: six general construction and four specials.

The transition to the Russian brand Cementum is the beginning of a new, completely independent stage of the company's development. The rebranding of assets belonging to the Russian division of Holcim is part of an agreement reached in December 2022 between the management of the Russian division of the company and the international Holcim group on the transfer of all Holcim assets in the Russian Federation to the local management of the company.

In 12 months, the plant produced 0.8 million tons of cement – 2 % more than in 2021. The company produced, in particular, 0.5 million tons of CEM I 42.5N and 0.1 million tons of CEM II/A-G 32.5B. These types of products proved to be the most in demand on the market last year.

CEMEX announced that it has acquired a 51% stake in Israel-based SHTANG Recycle LTD, a construction, demolition, and excavation waste, (CDEW) recycling company. The acquisition aligns with CEMEX’s strategy to strengthen its business in developed markets through bolt-on acquisitions in businesses with strong circular and sustainable attributes.

Sibcem Holding continues its investment activities to upgrade and expand the fleet of special equipment of its plants. A hydraulic excavator and a bulldozer have been put into operation in TimlyuyCement (Sibcem Holding). Equipment with a total cost of RUB 66 million was purchased for the development of the second ore body of the south-western flank of the Tarakanovskoye limestone and porphyroid deposit.

KuzbassTransCement (a subsidiary of Sibcem, responsible for the operation of the holding's railway fleet) sums up the results of work in 2022. From January to December, about 6.5 million tons of various cargoes were transported in the company's own wagons. In particular, about 2.5 million tons of cement produced by the holding's plants were delivered.

Eurocement continues to receive special equipment as part of the company's transport security strategy. In 2022, 165 cars were purchased at the plants. In the new year, the renewal of the fleet of automotive and quarry equipment will continue.
