Cement Plant Lukavac Is the Example of Successful Privatization in BiH

Asamer Business Group made a significant investment in BiH which improved development of Lukavac and classified the Cement Plant as one of the most modern and ecologically most acceptable in Europe

Lukavac Cement Plant is one of the few successful stories on privatization in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and thanks to the takeover of the Austrian company Asamer Baustoffe AG, the Plant has become the largest cement producer in our country.

This year, we plan to celebrate 15 years of successful privatization with numerous activities. We are extremely proud to be a part of the prominent business group Asamer, which has made a significant investment in BiH. Since the privatization in 2001, the factory has undergone two major phases of construction and reconstruction with investments of more than 200 million KM. Thanking to this, from one of factories with obsolete technology, Lukavac Cement Plant became one of the most modern and ecologically most acceptable plants in Europe. Efforts made by Asamer Group to achieve high ecological standards contributed to Lukavac and its surroundings now breathe cleaner air“,

said Izet Imamovic, director of the Lukavac Cement Plant.
