Background

The Malogogszcz plant was originally established as a state-owned enterprise, but underwent privatization in the 1990s. It became part of Lafarge Poland, a subsidiary of the French multinational Lafarge. In 2015, following the global merger of Lafarge and Holcim, the plant became integrated into the operations of LafargeHolcim. In 2020, Holcim announced a substantial investment exceeding EUR 100 million to modernize and reconstruct the Małogoszcz Cement Plant. The modernization plan included the replacement of three existing kilns with a single, state-of-the-art rotary kiln. Additionally, a new alternative fuel installation was constructed to increase the use of renewable energy sources, thereby minimizing reliance on fossil fuels. The plant incorporated Poland's first Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) system, designed to capture and reuse waste heat from operations. This innovation is projected to reduce the plant's CO₂ emissions by around 20% and decrease energy consumption by approximately 33%.
