CEMEX Invests in Circular Economy in Mexico

Key Facts

Our objective for this year is to double Broquer´s capacity and thereby contribute to the progress towards sustainability in the city of Queretaro, as well as the transformation of Mexico towards a green economy,” said Ricardo Naya, President of CEMEX Mexico.
All waste processed at the Broquers plant will be used as a climate-friendly fuel to power CEMEX's operations in Mexico; CEMEX takes advantage of the energy generated from the processed waste to use in its plants.
Broquers will continue to operate ordinarily and comply, as before, with all the conditions stipulated in its concession title for the treatment of urban solid waste in the municipality of Queretaro.
CEMEX is at the forefront of the circular economy in the construction value chain and is pioneering ways to increase the use of waste and residues as alternative raw materials and fuels in its operations with the use of new technologies.
