The project is also the first full-scope grinding plant in Rwanda, where Cimerwa, a subsidiary of South Africa’s PPC, has enjoyed a monopoly on cement production.
The cement grinding plant will have a capacity of 0.7 million tpy. The contract is to become effective upon receipt of a down payment from the customer, expected later this year.
“This is the latest project to underline FLSmidth’s strength as the leading supplier of the most productive and energy-efficient equipment and technology available in the market,” said Per Mejnert Kristensen, Group Executive Vice President of the Cement Division at FLSmidth.
The contract includes a complete range of equipment from storage to packing and cement loading.
Equipment will include a gear unit from FLSmidth MAAG Gear, filters from FLSmidth Airtech, a control system and plant automation from FLSmidth Automation, a packing plant from FLSmidth Ventomatic, and a weighing and metering system from FLSMidth Pfister.
