FLSmidth will deliver a grey-to-white cement line conversion to the Turkish cement producer, Çimko Çimento. The project is based on FLSmidth’s unique competences within process design and includes product engineering and equipment, such as the FLSmidth DUOFLEXTM burner, a Rotary cooler and an OKTM Raw Mill. The project is expected to be commissioned in early 2022.
Work will start later this year at Cimko Cimento’s existing production line, located near Adiyaman in south-eastern Turkey. Once completed, the upgraded line will offer Çimko Çimento new opportunities to expand its product range and enter new markets.
White cement is especially sought-after in countries with relatively hot climates, as it tends to keep buildings cooler with its reflective characteristics. In addition, as a high-quality, value-added product, white cement is often used in the construction of innovative buildings and important landmarks.
