| Cemex acquires gravel depots in Germany and France Cemex has recently acquired two gravel depots in Germany and France which will better position the company to serve its customers in the two countries. In Germany, Cemex acquired a gravel depot in the town of Willich, 10 kilometres outside the city of Düsseldorf. The facility mines sand and gravel from the river Rhine in different grain sizes. The materials are mined underwater with a pontoon excavator and conveyed via belt systems for processing. In France, the company acquired a gravel depot in the city of Dolus at the heart of the Oléron Island on the French Atlantic coast. The site provides local construction sites with around 50, 000 tons of aggregates per year. write your comments about the article :: © 2011 Construction News :: home page |
