The Libyan Cement Company started production in 1972 with one factory. The production capacity for ordinary Portland cement was 200,000 t/yr. In 1974, a new production line was added with a capacity of 400,000 t/yr. A third production line was built in 1977 with a 400,000 ton capacity, which brought production to 1 million t/yr of ordinary Portland cement. However, the first factory stopped production due to maintenance problems. As of 2007, the Benghazi plant produces 800,000 t/yr. The Hawari plant, which was established in 1964 to produce 1,000,000 t/yr. In 1987, adjustments were made to the Hawari plant production lines to produce sulphate-resistant cement. The El-Fatayah factory was established in 1982 with two production lines having a 1,000,000 t/yr capacity of ordinary Portland cement. This factory is located 350 km east of Benghazi, near Derna. LCC also has a factory that produces the cement packaging, which was established in 1975; as it stands today, the factory produces 200,000 bags per day.

All of LCC’s cement production is domestically consumed, with market demand exceeding LCC’s capacity. Demand for cement is very high; for building and construction, which consumed an estimated 8,000,000 tonnes of the sulphate-resistant cement. Upon the entrance of Asamer Holding 100MEUR modernization and investment projects were completed increasing the production efficiency, environmental protection measures and labor safety standards.
