Heidelberg Materials North America is pleased to announce that Texas Lehigh Cement Company LP, its fifty-fifty joint venture with Eagle Materials Inc., will be starting production at a new slag cement facility in Houston, Texas, this summer.
Construction of the new slag cement facility is substantially complete. The new plant is expected to have an annual manufacturing capacity of approximately 500,000 tons to supplement the Texas Lehigh cement manufacturing plant in Buda, Texas.
With this new facility, Texas Lehigh Cement Company strengthens its cementitious footprint in the fast-growing Texas market to better meet the increasing demand for more sustainable and resilient building materials and to meaningfully reduce the carbon intensity of its product portfolio.
