Golukhinsky Cement Plant in Altai, Russia is Set to Launch in July

The launch of Golukhinsky Cement plant may take place in early July, immediately after the completion of the product certification procedure. To put the only cement plant in the region into operation, the repairs were complete at the plant's site. The new owner also intends to invest 100 million rubles in modernization by the end of the year.

Repair works at the Golukhinsky cement plant began in December 2019. In addition to the modernization of production facilities and repairs of the plant’s infrastructure, the adjacent road from the village of Golukha to the city of Zarinsk was repaired.



“The goal of the modernization we did, was to reduce energy consumption,” says Deputy General Director for Production at Golukhinsky Cement, Alexander Firsov. — A clinker cooler, a clinker conveyor, and other equipment were repaired.”

Now the plant is automating technological processes at its facilities, planning to gradually increase production capacity. Today the plant operates one production line, dispatching about 300,000 tons of cement per year.

“The plant is initially designed to operate four rotary kilns, thus we have room for development,” says the owner of the enterprise, Roman Puzanov.
