Dangote Cement in Ethiopia

ethiopia

The 2.5Mta plant, less than 90km from Addis Ababa, was commissioned in May 2015. With rich limestone reserves of about 223 million tonnes, it is the largest cement plant in Ethiopia capable of producing high-quality 32.5 and 42.5-grade cements to meet market needs, and at competitive costs.

Pioneering New Standards with Dangote 3X Cement

Dangote Cement has set new standards by pioneering the 42.5R grade ‘Dangote 3X Cement’, which is designed to give more value to the end users. 3X is decoded to mean “Xtra strong, Xtra life and Xtra yield”. The new offering comes in a 50 Kg bag and is the first of its kind in Nigeria. Dangote 3X Cement is primarily aimed at preventing construction collapses due to usage of lower-grade cement apart from strengthening the quality of the brand.

The extra strength and rapid drying properties of the product makes it the first choice for builders and contractors. A bag of the new Dangote 3X Cement – 42.5R variety is rated as equivalent to one and half bag of the regular cement bag.

Our premium quality cement is produced in three grades namely:

32.5R CEM II

Lower clinker content augmented by pumice additive and gypsum
Suitable for plastering, low-rise buildings, masonry etc.
42.5R (3X) CEM II-AL

Higher clinker content
Suitable for most building uses including high-rise, some infrastructure work
52.5 CEM I

Higher clinker content
Suitable for major infrastructure construction such as bridges, dams etc.
