The story of Sharrcem began in 1936. Sharrcem is the only cement plant in Kosovo. It is conspicuously located at the country’s border with North Macedonia. Sharrcem is part of a larger value chain within the country borders that serves the needs of the society with regards to safe, sustainable, and affordable housing and construction. Its key operations consist of production, transportation, and distribution of cement, transportation of fly ash, and other raw materials. The production process at the cement plant in Hani i Elezit comprises of these steps: crush, homogenize, grind, heat, and cool raw mix to transform them mineralogical to clinker, which is then grinded further to produce the final product: the
cement. The raw material, such as limestone, is extracted from Sharrcem’s two active quarries in Dimce and Paldenice. Additionally for cement production we utilize the alternative raw materials such as bottom ash, fly ash and pyrite ashes which are generated from other
Kosovo industries in order to reduce the environmental footprint and increase eco-efficiency.
