SonmezCement

Sönmez Çimento plans to expand its 2.2 Mta cement plant at the Adana Yumurtalık Free Zone in Türkiye with a 2nd line. The new line is expected to have also a clinker production capacity of 2.0 Mta and double the cement capacity to about 4.5 Mta. Sönmez started cement production in September 2014 and made its first exports in Oct. 2014. Up to now, exports have been about 90% of the total cement and clinker production. Due to the declining market situation, no information has been given, when the new plant shall be completed.
