Fushe Kruje Cement

completed

Fushe Kruje Cement Factory sh.p.k. (FKCF or the company) is an existing cement manufacturing company, which was privatized in 2000. The factory was originally constructed as a wet-process plant and had total capacity of about 250,000 tons per year. At privatization the clinker manufacturing plant was not operational and at present, the cement factory operates only as a cement grinding station using imported clinker. The project will construct a modern dry-process, 3,300 tons per day capacity clinker plant, and install additional cement grinding capacity and a captive power plant. Upon completion the project will have a capacity of about 1.32 million tons per year of cement. The project will supply the local market, which currently imports 87% of the total annual cement and clinker consumption of 1.5 million tons.
