The joint owners of the former Lafarge Cement Ireland business have rebranded the County Tyrone company as Cemcor.
The move follows the purchase of the Cookstown firm by Cookstown Cement in January 2022, a joint venture between solid fuel LCC Group and Cemcor’s managing director David Millar, a former executive with Lafarge.
Cemcor’s Cookstown cement plant has a capacity of 450,000 tonnes a year while Cemcit also owns a limestone quarry near the town, a shale quarry in Dungannon and an import/export facility in Belfast Harbour. The owners said they will be investment £15 million in the business to upgrade its capacity and its sustainability.
