the first cement factory in the eastern Shuaiba industrial area, which started production on May 15, 1972 after building the first two mills for grinding clinker and gypsum and manufacturing cement, with a production capacity of 300,000 tons of cement annually.<\/p>\n<p>To implement the company&#8217;s ambitious plans to keep pace with urban development and development project strategies in the country, the company had to improve its production to provide cement to the local market.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, the company carried out several expansions in the factory to increase the grinding production capacity starting in 1978 and continued in this manner by establishing several new grinding production lines in gradual stages.<\/p>\n<p>The last stage was implemented at the end of 2009 when the company completed the construction of a new clinker unit, thus bringing the total production capacity of the factory to 3.8 million tons of cement annually, while the total operating capacity reached more than 5 million tons of cement annually.<br \/>\nAccordingly, Kuwait Cement Company has become the most important pillar in the national industrial edifice, and the main supporter of development projects and urban movement in the country.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_col-sm-6 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div

conveyor belt is considered among the most efficient in the world in terms of handling raw materials.<\/p>\n<p>In line with the company\u2019s policy of completing its production lines and building an integrated cement industry, and in order to achieve its most important strategic objectives of localizing the cement industry in the country, the company has established two huge kilns for producing clinker (the main material for cement manufacturing) on \u200b\u200bthe land of its factory in the Eastern Shuaiba Industrial Area.<br \/>\nThe first kiln began operating in 2001 with a production capacity of 2.5 million tons per year.<br \/>\nThe aforementioned factory was built and equipped with the latest technological capabilities and is considered one of the most important events that accompanied the company\u2019s journey over the past four decades.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the company established two raw material mills with a capacity of 245 tons\/hour each, two silos for storing clinker with a capacity of 50,000 tons each, and a pre-heater with a height of 126 meters.<br \/>\nMoreover, the construction of this kiln was carried out in conjunction with the installation of equipment for unloading and transporting raw materials from the vessels directly to the kiln feeding site within the plant using a 780-meter-long, 10-meter-high shaded conveyor belt across the road, with a design capacity of 1,500 tons\/hour.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_col-sm-6 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div
