Background
In 1913, the Popovac plant became part of the "French-Serbian Cement Industry a.d.," introducing its first rotary kiln and increasing production to 60 tons per day. Post-World War II, the plant was nationalized in 1946 and rebranded as "Novi Popovac" in 1956, reflecting the era's industrial growth. In 2002, Swiss company Holcim acquired the plant, which was followed by significant upgrades to enhance production capacities and environmental standards. In 2012, an automatic air quality monitoring station was installed to ensure continuous assessment of environmental impact. In 2015, the Irish multinational CRH Group took ownership of the facility. By April 2021, the company rebranded the plant as "Moravacem."
