2024-01-03 13:08:45

Over the past ten years, Conch Cement has adhered to the new development concept, constructed a new development pattern, closely followed the pulse of the times, seized strategic opportunities, and firmly sailed to the vast new blue sea as a pioneer, drawing a magnificent picture of the high-quality development of the "one belt and one road".

Ten years of wind and rain cut through the waves, and ten years of hard work have yielded fruitful results. Ten years ago, General Secretary Xi Jinping put forward the "Belt and Road" initiative, pointing out a bright road of peace and cooperation, openness and inclusiveness, mutual learning and mutual benefit. In the past ten years, Conch Cement has invested in Indonesia, Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia, Uzbekistan and other countries along the "Belt and Road" and completed 16 physical projects in the past ten years of https://price.ccement.com/brandnewslist-1-1000026. The total investment has exceeded 16 billion yuan, the annual production capacity of overseas cement has exceeded 23.5 million tons, and the revenue has exceeded 27 billion yuan. To realize the https://price.ccement.com/Price_list-1-s0-e0-p0-c0-k100059-b0.

of raw materials, fuels and cement < a href = "the forerunner

of China's cement enterprises" going to sea ". Those who are good at planning will go far. As early as 2011, when the domestic cement industry was booming, Conch began to plan its overseas layout. On June 30, 2011, Conch Cement, the Ministry of Industry of Indonesia and the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of Anhui Province signed a memorandum of cooperation on the South Canada Conch Project in Jakarta, and the first overseas project of Conch Cement was launched.

Everything is difficult at the beginning. In the early stage of project construction, conch people are faced with many difficult problems, such as weak infrastructure, poor traffic conditions, harsh climate and environment, and differences in cultural customs. Most of the staff live in simple construction rooms, with the sky as the quilt and the ground as the mat, often accompanied by mosquitoes and sleeping with geckos. However, it is in such a difficult environment. Conch people have completed the project construction with the spirit of being down-to-earth and willing to work hard. On November 18, 2014, the torch for the official production of Nanga Conch was lit, and the Conch people who worked hard and sweated on the land of Indonesia finally ushered in the harvest.

Since then, Conch people have taken root in Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos, Uzbekistan and other countries. From the tropical rainforest to the hinterland of Central Asia, modern cement factories have sprung up. On February 5,

2016, the 5000t/d production line of Conch in Myanmar was ignited and put into operation; On March 18,

2018, the 5000t/d Conch Production Line in Battambang, Cambodia was ignited and put into production;

on November 29, 2019, the 2500t/d Conch Production Line in Luang Prabang, Laos was ignited and put into production; On May 18,

2022, Uzbekistan Karshi Conch 3200 t/d production line was ignited and put into operation.

As the main force of "going out" in China's cement industry, Conch Cement's overseas production capacity has been expanding in the past ten years, while actively driving advanced production technology and high-end equipment to go abroad. Adhering to the enterprise spirit of "unity, innovation, dedication and dedication" and the business philosophy of "supreme quality and sincere service", batch after batch of Conch people have crossed mountains and seas, retraced the Silk Road, and written a new chapter of Conch's development in promoting international capacity cooperation.

January 17, Conch Cement successfully won the bid for the project of Joshi Plant in Myanmar. On July 8 of the same year, the 400t/d recovery technical transformation and equipment maintenance of Joshi Plant were fully started, and the old cement plant gradually began to glow with new vitality. One month later, the recovery technical transformation of the production line was completed, and the output of cement and clinker in that month exceeded 10,000 tons, creating a record in a single month since the establishment of the plant. On February 5, 2016, the Myanmar Conch 5000t/d production line was successfully ignited and put into operation. In the same year, the production line was awarded the "Implementation Standard of New Dry Process Cement Production Line" by the Ministry of Industry of Myanmar. The slowly rotating cement kiln witnessed the "resurrection" of the Jiaoshi factory, as well as the tenacity and perseverance of the conch people.

< IMG SRC = "Since the https://img7.ccement.com/richtext/img/pef0tgkys1m1704259135909. Myanmar Conch was ignited and put into production, labor productivity has increased by 9 times.". Now, we can clearly feel that the mental outlook, work efficiency and enthusiasm of employees have greatly improved compared with before. The head of Myanmar Conch Company said. In October 2023, Myanmar Mandalay Conch received good news again, and the trial production of coal screening project was successful, which marked that Conch Cement took the lead in breaking through the bottleneck of low calorific value coal heating production technology in Myanmar, and since then, it has got rid of the predicament that Myanmar cement industry relies too much on imported high calorific value coal.

Every place is irrigated, which not only harvests the fruits of development, but also nourishes the local soil. The wonderful story of Conch Cement taking root, blossoming and bearing fruit in Myanmar is just a vivid epitome of overseas development.

In the modern cement intelligent factory, the application of industrial brain makes the ideal of "one-key input, whole-process intelligent control" gradually become a reality. As the first stop of Conch Cement in Central Asia, the automatic production line of Karshi Conch in Uzbekistan is eye-catching. In the spacious and bright central control room, the whole production process from mining to cement delivery, the operation status of five systems and thousands of sets of equipment are displayed on the screen in real time. "Workers only need to move their fingers to automatically complete the continuous and stable production of clinker and cement with the best parameters, which effectively prolongs the operation cycle of equipment and ensures the quality of products, while reducing the labor intensity of personnel." The head of Karshi Conch Company said.

After the project is put into operation, it can save 56,000 tons of coal every year and reduce carbon dioxide emissions. 14

. As far as the practitioners of the concept of green development

can see, there is no fly ash and dust, only blue sky and green land, which is the deep impression left by the domestic factories of Conch Cement, as well as overseas. From the environmental protection planning at the beginning of construction to the persistence for several years after putting into operation, Conch Cement has always been committed to combining modern industrial civilization with local ecological construction, implanting Conch's concept of protecting the environment and green development into people's hearts, sparing no effort to build a green, low-carbon and harmonious enterprise. In the past ten years, Conch Cement has built one after another "garden factories" with local characteristics.

Walking into Madewang Conch Factory, surrounded by green water, green hills, flowers and plants, the "CONCH" logo composed of artificial lake ridges and green plants is also very obvious in the satellite map. The ingenious design makes the natural and cultural landscape blend with great characteristics, and flocks of wild ducks swim through the lake. A beautiful picture of harmonious coexistence between man and nature unfolds slowly.

Up to now, 516,000 tons of rice husks have been used, nearly 300,000 tons of standard coal have been saved, and about 71% of carbon dioxide emissions have been reduced.

Today, the photovoltaic panels near the factory area of Battambang Conch are shining in the sunshine.On October 29, 2021, the 18 MW p + 4MW/10 MWh photovoltaic power generation and energy storage project of Battambang Conch was officially connected to the grid for trial operation, with an annual power generation capacity of 25.82 million degrees, an annual saving of about 8500 tons of standard coal, an emission reduction of about 22000 tons of carbon dioxide, and an organic unity of ecological, economic and social benefits.

infrastructure connectivity" Infrastructure is the cornerstone of connectivity. It is also a bottleneck facing the development of many countries. As the basic industry of national economic construction, cement, as the basic building material, is the most important for developing countries with relatively weak industry and infrastructure. In the past ten years, Conch Cement has adhered to the business philosophy of "high quality and sincere service" in the implementation of the "one belt and one road" initiative, and is committed to exporting high-quality products and services to pave the way for a better life for the local people.

Laos is the only landlocked country in Southeast Asia, with mountains and plateaus accounting for 80% of its land area and inconvenient transportation, so it is also known as the "land-locked country". This "lock" greatly limits the travel of the Lao people, and even "locks" the economic development of Laos. It is the dream of the Lao people to change the "land-locked country" into a "land-linked country". On December 3,

2021, the China-Laos Railway connecting Kunming and Vientiane was officially put into operation after five years of construction. The 1035-kilometer-long "Iron and Steel Dragon" crossed the three mountains and four rivers, becoming the lifeline for Laos to develop its economy and a beautiful scenic line on the border between China and Laos that embodies the wisdom and perseverance of the Chinese people.

"At that time, our cement products had just been put into the market. With excellent product quality and thoughtful service, the company formally became the cement supplier of China-Laos Railway. Six railway stations from Boten to Luang Prabang were all supplied by our company." The head of conch sales in Luang Prabang, Laos, said proudly.

< IMG SRC = "The decade of overseas development of Conch Cement in https://img7.ccement.com/richtext/img/i3j1fbdosv1704259857038. is a decade of integrating into and serving the local community." From talent localization training to actively fulfilling social responsibility, Conch Cement is not only a "partner" but also a "good friend".

Indonesian employee Meina, as one of the first selected members of the "International Order Class" project of cooperation between Conch Cement and Wuhu Vocational and Technical College, studied and lived in China for three years, successfully obtained her diploma and vocational qualificatio n certificate, and entered the work of North Su Conch in Indonesia after graduation. At the same time, it opened a new chapter in my life. Mina said.

Like Meina, who graduated from the "International Order Class", there are still many overseas subsidiaries of Conch Cement, who, with the ideal of returning home and building their hometown, have gradually grown into the backbone of technology and management in various positions. Together with other foreign employees, Conch Cement has formed a solid "local force" for overseas companies. Up to now, Conch Cement has more than 3000 overseas employees, and the localization rate of employment has reached 85%.

< IMG SRC = "https://img7.ccement.com/richtext/img/52kk5tj05rn1704259868932. in Conch's overseas subsidiaries, Chinese and foreign employees can communicate with each other smoothly in each other's language everywhere." Once the bridge of language communication is built, the road of realizing "one family of employees" will be smooth. Many Chinese and foreign employees have become "iron brothers", and even single girls and boys have formed exotic love. People are the main body of the collision and blending of different cultures. Only by putting people first and giving employees a sense of belonging to the enterprise can the collective have more centripetal force and cohesion. The ice of cultural differences can also be melted in the warmth of the big family of the collective. Many foreign employees said: "Chinese teachers and colleagues who are patient and rigorous in their work are warm and friendly friends in their lives."

In the "home", we are as close as brothers, and outside the "door", we give consideration to both righteousness and interests, and put righteousness first. Conch Cement's "going out" development path is a road of mutual dependence and people's hearts. In early January

2021, continuous heavy rainfall in South Kalimantan, Indonesia, triggered floods. Nearly 11 of the 13 regions in the province were affected by floods. Floods and landslides caused many bridges and buildings to be damaged or even flooded, and about 140,000 residents were forced to evacuate. Natural disasters are merciless, but there is love in the world. After the disaster, Indonesia's Nanga Conch acted quickly and organized the distribution of love aid packages. In addition, considering that the flood caused damage to the main roads of the surrounding villages and made it difficult for the surrounding people to travel, South California Conch took the initiative to contact the local government and donated rubble for road maintenance, which made the roads passable. At the same time, it urgently purchased a large number of living materials to visit the surrounding villages and actively cooperate with and support the government departments to carry out assistance work.

< IMG SRC = "https://img7.ccement.com/richtext/img/eljby0r376f1704259876645." The person in charge of Indonesia's Nanga Conch Company said with deep feeling. During

the epidemic, we donated epidemic prevention materials, repaired roads for nearby villages with inconvenient transportation, and sent school supplies to poor children. Over the past decade, while accelerating its overseas development, Conch Cement has taken the initiative to assume corporate social responsibility, integrate into the local area, serve the local area, and continuously increase its investment in public welfare undertakings. At critical moments and in dribs and drabs, Conch Cement has stepped forward and done good deeds to help the weak, demonstrating the responsibility and responsibility of Chinese enterprises. Up to now, Conch Cement's overseas investment has led to more than 30,000 local direct and indirect employment, and the achievements of overseas development have benefited more local people. General Secretary

Xi Jinping pointed out in his speech at the third "Belt and Road" Summit Forum: "Jointly building the" Belt and Road "has gone through the first decade of prosperity, and is in its prime. We must forge ahead with high spirits and move towards the next golden decade! Standing at the starting point of the next golden decade, Conch Cement will work hard, uphold the concept of "creating future living space for mankind", firmly implement the internationalization strategy, deeply participate in the construction of "one belt and one road", and let more mutually beneficial and win -win projects take root and bear fruit in the countries and regions along the line. Conch will contribute to the high-quality development of "Belt and Road".
