Ambuja Cements has successfully begun commercial production of clinker and cement at its Marwar Greenfield Plant (Marwar Cement Works) in Nagaur district of Rajasthan. The trial runs at the new plant were virtually inaugurated by Chief Minister of Rajasthan Ashok Gehlot. Built over an investment of Rs 2,350 crore, this greenfield integrated plant increases Ambuja Cements’ clinker capacity by three million tpa and improves cement sales by five million tpa, thereby contributing to the company’s long term strategy of capacity expansion. The plant has deployed all modern equipment and technology to produce cement in a more environment-friendly manner. It has a waste heat recovery system (WHRS) that converts waste heat derived during the production process into energy. Marwar Cement Works is the third plant of Holcim Group in Rajasthan, after Rabariwas and Lakheri.
