Bamburi Cement PLC, now a subsidiary of Tanzanian conglomerate Amsons Group, will build a new clinker plant at a cost of $250 million in Matuga, Kwale County.
The construction of the state-of-the-art 1.6 million tonnes-a-year new clinkerisation plant, incorporating advanced, carbon-neutral technologies to reduce environmental impact, is part of Bamburi Cement's corporate strategy to double its production capacity for quality cement and concrete products, to power Kenya's infrastructure development and economic transformation.
Through the turnkey clinkerisation factory, Bamburi Cement PLC aims to more than double its clinker and ultimately its cement production capacities, from 1 Million Tonnes to 2.6 Million Tonnes for Clinker and from 1.8 Million Tonnes to 4 Million Tonnes for quality cement.
