Limak Cement
Limak Cement and R&D Center primarily operates within the cement and concrete industry, with the ultimate goal of ensuring and sustaining the production of innovative and environmentally friendly green cement and concrete. To achieve this, several key strategies are employed, including collaborating with other energy-intensive sectors to support the circular economy within the scope of industrial symbiosis, partnering with technology developers to enhance energy efficiency within production systems, and meticulously managing digital transformation processes with information providers. Efforts to reduce emissions through policies aligned with carbon capture and zero waste approaches, aiming for the 2050 net zero emission target, are among the most critical areas of focus. Additionally, product and system improvements, carbon reduction, circular economy initiatives, and digital transformation principles form the core pillars of Limak Cement and R&D Center’s activities.

Brief description of my Organisation
Limak Cement, a member of Limak Holding, was incorporated in 2000 and, growing through organic and inorganic growth, managed to become a group with Turkey's second largest clinker capacity with 10 cement plants and a clinker capacity of 9.6 million tons.
On the other hand, Limak Cement has been running its operations in Sub-Saharan Africa since 2016. Limak Cimentos S.A. (Mozambique) and Limak Afrika S.A. (Ivory Coast), affiliates of Limak Cement, have positioned themselves in their respective countries among brands of choice thanks to the loyal customer group that has formed due to their cement and concrete products as well as their stability in service quality and increasing customer satisfaction.
Limak Cement is the one and only organization setting an example within the industry with its 3 Ready Mixed Concrete R&D laboratories with a 17025 international accreditation certificate. Limak Cement which is the first integrated cement plant that has been awarded the GOLD Certificate owns Turkey's first-ever integrated cement plant across the industry that was awarded ISO 45001 and ISO 50001 in 2020 with TÜRKAK (Turkish Accreditation Agency) Accreditation.
Reducing the ecological footprint is one of our main subjects of focus as part of the efforts associated with the fight against climate change. Our efforts are ongoing to maintain continuity of efforts of adaptation to 2030 Sustainable Development Goals as announced by the UN and playing an active role in the GRI reporting process and placing in the center of all fields the awareness of “Responsible Production Consumption” (SKA 12) one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
