Sampyo Cement, a member company of the Korea Cement Association, took part in this expo. It sought to enhance mutual cooperation with Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province and shared ways to contribute to regional development. In particular, it emphasized its commitment to becoming an eco-friendly industry by expanding resource recycling.

At the cement industry promotional booth, the focus was on highlighting the safety and excellence of resource recycling using the kiln, which melts cement raw materials, as well as its eco-friendliness such as greenhouse gas reduction effects. The booth also promoted the socioeconomic cost-saving effects resulting from the expansion of resource recycling. The company pledged to fulfill its corporate social responsibility by responding to the global climate change crisis.

A Sampyo Cement official stated, “Reducing carbon emissions in response to the climate crisis is a timely challenge and the core of sustainable eco-friendly management. We will continuously evolve to establish a technical foundation for carbon reduction and further expand resource recycling.”

Along with Sampyo Cement (Samcheok), four companies from the Gangwon region participated in this expo: Ssangyong C&E (Donghae), Hanil and Hyundai Cement (Yeongwol), and Halla Cement (Okgae).
