President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov took part in the official ceremony of commissioning the 2nd line of the Baherden cement plant with the capacity of 1 million tons of cement per year.
Baherden cement plant, commissioned in February 2005, is one of the largest cement plants in Central Asia.
In accordance with the Decree of the Head of State, the construction of the second line was completed by an independent enterprise. The largest German engineering company was also involved in the project.
The new plant is equipped with advanced technology from the world's leading manufacturers, which will make it possible to produce high-quality cements, such as PC-400, PC-500, PC-600 and sulfate-resistant Portland cement.
Special attention, as well as at other similar facilities, was paid to the sustainability of production and compliance with all necessary standards, as environmental protection is one of the integral conditions for the construction of large industrial facilities in Turkmenistan.
