Our Plant

Industrial Excellence. Engineered for Ghana.

Located in Tema, the CBI Ghana plant is a world-class manufacturing facility designed for precision, sustainability, and absolute supply-chain reliability. We transform raw materials into the high-performance cement that anchors national development.

The LC3 Pioneer Facility

Leading the Region's Decarbonization Roadmap.

Our facility is home to West Africa's first industrial-scale Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3) production line. By utilizing advanced calcination technology, we produce a specialized clay that significantly reduces clinker dependency.

For our institutional partners, this facility is more than an innovation — it is a compliance guarantee.

40% CO₂ Reduction

Meeting the rigorous ESG and carbon-intensity benchmarks of international development banks.

Enhanced Performance

Delivering cement with superior early strength and durability for harsh environments.

Asset Future-Proofing

Aligning your project with the 2026–2028 global shift toward sustainable procurement.

The Tema Free Zones Facility

Our state-of-the-art facility located in the Tema Free Zones Enclave represents a monumental shift in West African industrial capability. We have invested heavily in cutting-edge kiln technology specifically designed to process locally sourced clay into low-carbon calcined clay (LC3), reducing CO2 emissions by up to 40% compared to traditional Ordinary Portland Cement.

Environmental Impact

Tangible Emissions Reductions

295 ktCO2e/yr

Project Emissions Reductions

Our facility fundamentally alters the emissions profile of cement production in Ghana, delivering an annual reduction of 295 ktCO2e based on a baseline production of 2,286 kt of cement, excluding maritime offsets.

382 ktCO2e/yr

Total Reductions (Including Maritime)

When factoring in the offset of maritime import emissions (87 ktCO2e/yr), our total systemic impact scales up to a massive 382 ktCO2e reduction in carbon footprint each year.

Regulatory Pioneers

Our Challenge: Convincing The Regulator

To sanction LC3—a revolutionary seventh type of cement—in Ghana, we had to systematically rewrite the rules of building materials by building unassailable institutional consensus.
