The first cement works at today’s Anhovo site were put into operation. On 2nd May 1921, after two years of construction, cement production was started. 16 shaft kilns with an output of 160 tonnes per day, which was then a highly respectable performance, were set up. The choice of the location was perfect, and owing to sources of abundant raw materials the growing demand for cement was able to be met even in the long term.
