“Receiving this recognition again at our plants in the United States Regional ratifies our commitment to the materialisation of strategies focused on providing value to society through the efficient use of natural resources and the incorporation of new and better alternative energy sources... We will continue working on the research and implementation of technologies that allow us to continue to have more responsible operations every day”, said María Isabel Echeverri, Legal and Sustainability Vice President of Cementos Argos.

The Harleyville Plant also stands out for having the largest cement mill in the United States, which operates with approximately half the energy consumption required by a traditional one and, additionally, for implementing the waste co-processing process in its operation.

For its part, the Roberta Plant has an installed capacity of more than 1.5 million tpy and has been historically recognised for implementing, to a large extent, alternative fuels and energy optimisation processes.

In the United States, Cementos Argos has established itself as the second largest concrete company and the fourth largest cement company in the country.
