ACC Ltd will set up a new clinker production facility of 2.79 million tonnes per annum and allied grinding facility at Jamul, in Durg district of Chhattisgarh, phasing out the existing clinkering and grinding lines there. The new plant will help meet the demand for cement in the eastern region.
It also plans to decentralise grinding stations which will use clinker produced at Jamul. The project will be implemented in a phased manner and scheduled for completion by the first quarter of 2015.
