FLSmidth has signed a landmark contract with Prime Cement Ltd for engineering, procurement and supply of equipment for a full-scope cement grinding plant with a capacity of 700,000tonnes/year. The plant will be located in Musanze, Rwanda. The contract will become effective when FLSmidth receives a down-payment from the customer, which is expected to happen later in 2017.
This is a milestone project for FLSmidth, being the first OK vertical roller mill to be supplied in East Africa and the first full-scope grinding plant in Rwanda.
The contract includes a complete range of equipment from storages to packing and cement loading. FLSmidth will also supply equipment from other FLSmidth brands, such as a planetary mill gear unit from FLSmidth MAAG Gear, filters from FLSmidth Airtech, a control system and plant automation from FLSmidth Automation, a packing plant from FLSmidth Ventomatic and weighing and metering systems from FLSmidth Pfister.
“This is the latest project to underline FLSmidth’s strength as the leading supplier of the most productive and energy-efficient equipment and technology available in the market – and it is confirmed by Prime Cement’s order for its grinding facility in Rwanda,” said Per Mejnert Kristensen, Group Executive Vice President, Cement Division.
