UltraTech Cement announced the commissioning of its 2nd clinker line of 2.70 mtpa at Hirmi Cement Works, the company's integrated cement manufacturing unit located in Chhattisgarh.
Cement mill upgradation for a further capacity of 1.30 mtpa is also on track to commission in Q2FY23.
The commissioning of clinkerisation unit was completed well ahead of schedule. This is a unique achievement considering the slowdown faced in project work earlier during the year due to Covid.
UltraTech Cement, the cement flagship company of the Aditya Birla Group, is the largest manufacturer of grey cement and ready mix concrete (RMC) and one of the largest manufacturers of white cement in India. It is the third largest cement producer in the world, excluding China.
