Description
The project concerns the construction and operation of a cement plant on a greenfield site, next to the raw materials deposit, and dedicated to the supply of the national market. It will have an annual capacity of some 2.5 Mt of cement.
Objectifs
The local production of cement will valorise domestic raw material (like limestone and clay), and contribute directly to the industrial development and the economic diversification of a particularly poor rural region. An increase in cement production capacity should assist Pakistan to maintain a low level of cement prices, essential for the development of its infrastructure and of affordable residential housing projects and the reconstruction following the earthquake of October 2005. The project is also consistent with the poverty alleviation and infrastructure development priorities of EU development cooperation with Pakistan, which is the third largest recipient of EU aid in Asia.
