Flying Cement Limited is going to start its new cement production Line II in Mangwal, in the heart of the Punjab province in Pakistan. The new line comprises a 7700 tpd kiln with an ICL-preheater, a Cross-Bar-cooler and an OK 71-6 cement mill for 415 t/h of OPC. The plant contract had been awarded to FLSmidth in March 2019. Plant commissioning had been postponed from 2021 to 2024. The start-up of the 3.0 Mta cement line this year comes amidst low capacity utilisation of Pakistan’s cement industry. Probably the existing Line I will be closed, when Line II is operational. Line I has a capacity of 4000 tpd and had been supplied by Japanese IHI.
