Cement production begins at the 1.4mtpa Delmas milling plant
Sephaku Holdings is pleased to announce that its associate, Sephaku Cement (Pty) Ltd (“SepCem”),
began commercial production at its Delmas milling plant (“Delmas” or “the operation”) on 6 January
2014 following a successful commissioning phase.
SepCem is a core investment of Sephaku Holdings, which owns 36%. The remaining 64% of SepCem is
owned by Dangote Cement PLC, Africa’s largest cement producer. Delmas where production is
expected to be ramped up to an annualised 1.4 million tonnes per annum (“mtpa”) by mid-2014, is
one of two major projects of SepCem strategically situated east of Gauteng.
Chief Executive Officer, Dr Lelau Mohuba, said “This has been a nine-year journey and we are pleased
to finally have our cement brand in the market. We are proud of SepCem’s highly experienced
operational team for attaining this key milestone in being the latest entrant into the South African
cement industry since 1934. This is a demonstration of not only the extensive skills and experience of
our management to bring the projects to account, but the determination in establishing SepCem as a
key player in the industry. The commissioning phase has started at SepCem’s other major project,
Aganang, an integrated plant located in Lichtenburg, North West province of South Africa which is on
target for production by the second quarter of 2014 .”
SepCem’s cement products have been tested and approved by the National Regulator for Compulsory
Specifications, enabling Delmas to begin producing for the market. SepCem has to date secured
significant sales volumes and its cement brand has been available at retail outlets in Gauteng, Limpopo
and Mpumalanga since 13 January 2014.
In line with SepCem’s key objective of offering a superior quality of service, Delmas has successfully
installed SAP Business suite software. This will enhance its efforts to ensure best-in-class systems for
customers and to drive efficiency at SepCem.
