Star Cement

In 2004, the slumbering town of Lumshnong in Meghalaya witnessed a new beginning. Cement Manufacturing Company Limited [CMCL] gave birth to the Star Cement brand. Today, CMCL is the pre-eminent producer of cement in the East. With over 24% market share, Star Cement is, indisputably, the largest brand in the North-East. Star Cement ventured out of North East in 2013 to Bihar & Bengal. It is now poised to be a leading brand in Bengal, Bihar & Jharkhand.
Star Cement is manufactured in a sprawling, world-class plant at Lumshnong located in Jaintia Hills [Meghalaya]. Spread over 40 acres, the Lumshnong plant is situated on National Highway 44, 225 km from Guwahati & 125 km from Shillong. The production of the Lumshnong plant is supplemented by that of the spanking new Sonapur plant near Guwahati [Assam].

The Lumshnong plant, the largest in the North-East, benefits from its proximity to raw materials, especially limestone. The ultramodern plant, built with technology from Germany, is the last word in precision and quality. The plant boasts of a 24-hour automated camera in the burning zone, an automatic rotopacker machine and a state-of-the-art dry process rotary. The plant is ISO 9001:2000, ISO 18001, ISO 15001 and ISO 14001 certified.
