History

EUROCEMENT group was formed in 2002 following the merger of Rosuglesbit and Shtern-cement. The company originally had four plants: Maltsovsky Portlandcement, Mikhailovcement, Lipetskcement, and Savinsky cement. But since 2005, following the purchase of seven additional cement plants, EUROCEMENT group has become a leading company in the Russian cement market.

On May 2014 the company signed a package of contracts with Chinese companies for equipment supplies, engineering, installation supervision and employee training totaling $530.7 million. Contracted supplies include mechanical equipment, furnaces, cyclone heat exchangers, crushers, and mills. The new equipment will be used for the construction of new cement plants with a total capacity of 17 million tons of cement per year in six regions of Russia: Leningrad, Ryazan, Bryansk, Arkhangelsk, Ulyanovsk and Samara regions, according to the corporate message.[2]

Health, Safety, Security and Environment

The EUROCEMENT group complies with the requirements of Russian and international legislation on health, safety, security and the environment. The company applies cutting-edge technology and enhanced production methods to create safe and healthy working conditions, as well as to minimise the risk of industrial accidents and other emergency situations.

The EUROCEMENT group’s policies include the following key objectives:

  • Reducing industrial injuries and adverse environmental impacts
  • Improving industrial and environmental safety to meet the standards of international companies
  • Establishing and maintaining an efficient management system for health, safety, security, and environmental protection
  • Reducing industrial risks from production facilities

EUROCEMENT Holding's investments in air protection activities in 2005-2007 exceeded 784 million rubles, delivering the following most notable projects:

  • replacement and upgrade of electrostatic precipitators on rotary kilns
  • reconstruction of electrostatic precipitators of cement mills
  • installation of cement silos suction systems
  • providing the departments loading the finished products into railway cars and cement trucks with modern de-dusting equipment
  • establishing sanitary industrial laboratories in the cement plants and providing the labs with modern analytical equipment for the effective monitoring of emission and discharge standards


Due to giving up a number of traditional mining processes, namely drilling, hole-loading, explosions, primary and secondary crushing, the negative impact of mining on the environment has decreased.

Environmentally friendly production and protection of nature are among priorities for EUROCEMENT group. To achieve these objectives EUROCEMENT group outlined specific tasks in its program of development for production facilities for 2007-2020.
The EUROCEMENT group has been a long-term partner of the Ministry of Regional Development (Minregion Rossii).[7]

Social responsibility

Social responsibility is an integral part of the business of EUROCEMENT group.
As part of social partnership, all plants of the company have collective employment agreements ensuring improved social protection for the personnel, observance of their interests, social, and labor rights. Collective employment agreements stipulate guarantees and benefits which by far exceed those set forth by existing laws. Employees are provided with subsidized meals, financial support, medical treatment. Employees have celebrations organized for them to mark a number of national industry and corporate occasions. EUROCEMENT group opens the Corporate Sports Contest every year.[8]

Charity

Charity is a vital part of business at EUROCEMENT group. The Holding provides annual support to various social and cultural events, helps community and religious groups, and assists socially vulnerable population groups.
Charitable activities of the Holding are based on two main objectives:

  • Targeted support is the most effective way of providing charitable assistance
  • There is a real need for charitable programs

The EUROCEMENT group has been a long-term partner of the Action “Pod flagom dobra”. The aim of this charity is to provide targeted financial assistance to children who need expensive medical treatment. Since the Action began its work, 572 children have received high-tech medical aid worth more than 119 million rubles.[9] As part of charitable activities, EUROCEMENT group is also making an investment in the future. The company pays great attention to the development of technical, academic and educational facilities at pre-school organizations and schools in Russian regions. One of the major projects that received our support was the opening a new secondary school in the urban-style community of Podgorensky (Voronezh Region: the site of Holding’s new cement plant).[10] The EUROCEMENT group allocated nine million rubles for this in 2009. The Holding also attaches great importance to the revival of Russia’s spiritual heritage and the consolidation of its moral foundations. With Holding’s active help, churches in the areas where Holding operates have been restored and re-built. EUROCEMENT group also has an active policy of recognizing human potential and consolidating relationship with education and science. In 2009 EUROCEMENT group and Belgorod State Technological University signed an agreement of mutual co-operation.[11] The company, as part of its sponsorship activities, also participates in the creation of new cultural values and traditions. The Holding supports the Russian festival of performing arts, Golden Mask,[12] as well as nurturing a long-term strategic partnership with the Moscow International Performing Arts Center.[13] EUROCEMENT group is a member of the Friends of the Tretyakov Gallery Society.[14] These are excellent examples of effective and organic co-operation between business and the arts.
