In October 2016, World Cement was invited to the official opening of the DeCONOx plant at Kirchdorfer Cement. On a beautiful sunny day in Kirchdorf, invited guests, some dressed in traditional Austrian attire, gathered outside the new facility to listen to technical explanations and welcoming speeches. The new facility represents another example of Kirchdorfer Cement’s determination to become as environmentally friendly as possible. It is this attitude that parallels so closely with the vision of what a Cement Plant of the Future should be. Throughout the evening it became clear that the company spares no amount of effort or engineering skill when it comes to environmental protection.
