BUILDING A BETTER WORLD
ACC has been continuously striving to improve energy and environmental performance supported by a strong top management commitment.
Our environmental policy is designed to contribute to building a better world. We operate our facilities in accordance with local laws, standards and regulations; applying state-of-the-art environmental management systems.
At ACC, we are always keen to minimize the use of non-renewable resources whenever possible. We also work on limiting the hazardous outcomes and other wastes of our operations. This could be achieved by using substitute raw materials and alternative fuels as well as disposing of wastes using safe and environment-friendly methods. It is our duty to conduct environmental audits for all facilities periodically.
We have implemented cutting-edge technologies and adopted organizational structures to facilitate the usage of many types of alternative fuels from scratch since 2013, achieving high substitution rates of alternative fuels over standard fuels. We are pioneering in the use of alternative energy in the Egyptian cement industry as the first cement company in Egypt to establish a solar power station inside its plant. In 2019, ACC won the first prize in this year’s competition “1st Alternative Fuel Award 2019” from MVW – LECHTENBERG & PARTNER.
