 At Cemtech Asia 2026, SCG demonstrated its commitment to advancing the cement industry
through tangible low-carbon cement innovations. **Mr. Surachai Nimlaor, President
of SCG Cement and Green Solutions**, stated:

 “As the region’s leader in the low-carbon cement industry, SCG is dedicated to 
developing breakthrough innovations that minimize resource consumption and maximize
eco-friendliness. By steadily reducing carbon dioxide emissions, we directly address
the evolving demands and adaptation challenges of the construction industry across
ASEAN and global markets.”

 Alongside showcasing its cutting-edge **LC3 low-carbon cement prototype** at the
exhibition, SCG hosted an exclusive site visit to its **Ta Luang Cement Plant** 
in Saraburi Province for global delegates. Key highlights of the showcase and tour
included:

 *  **SCG LC3 Structural Cement:** Developed from limestone, calcined clay, and 
   specialized additives, this next-generation low-carbon cement reduces CO2 emissions
   by up to 30–40%. Its production process incorporates up to 40% biomass alternative
   fuels (such as rice husks and straw) and over 35% renewable energy. This is achieved
   without compromising any product performance or structural integrity, with its
   environmental performance independently verified through an Environmental Product
   Declaration (EPD).
 *  **Rondo Heat Battery:** SCG has pioneered ASEAN’s first installation of the 
   Rondo Heat Battery at the Ta Luang Cement Plant. Developed in collaboration with
   Rondo Energy, this breakthrough thermal energy storage solution converts intermittent
   renewable power into high-temperature thermal energy, storing it at up to 1,500
   °C in thermal media. With an exceptional energy recovery efficiency of up to 
   97% and a lifespan exceeding 40 years, the system provides a continuous 24/7 
   supply of clean heat, supporting the decarbonization of industrial manufacturing
   processes.

 *  **Refractory Solutions by The Siam Refractory Industry Co., Ltd. (SRIC):** As
   a leading global refractory solutions provider, SRIC showcased its advanced technologies
   and innovative solutions designed to enhance operational efficiency, reliability,
   and sustainability, including:
    1.  **Anti-Hydration Brick:** The world’s first Anti-Hydration brick, extending
       shelf life from 6 to 24 months. This breakthrough innovation helps minimize 
       material degradation, reduce production downtime, and improve overall operational
       efficiency.
    2.  **Thermal Media for Heat Battery:** Co-developed with Rondo Energy, these high-
       performance heat storage blocks deliver up to 97% thermal efficiency, enabling
       reliable 24-hour energy availability and supporting the transition toward cleaner
       industrial energy solutions.
    3.  -  **Solar Floating:** Installed at the Ta Luang Cement Plant, this floating
          solar array generates 16.6 million kWh of clean electricity annually, cutting
          greenhouse gas emissions by over 8,000 tons of CO₂ equivalent per year. By
          repurposing the plant’s industrial reservoirs, the system optimizes resource
          efficiency and highlights SCG’s integration of green energy into heavy industry.

 As co-host of Cemtech ASIA 2026, SCG reaffirmed its role as a trusted industry 
leader on the global stage. The event served as a major catalyst for expanding business
networks and facilitating high-level technology and knowledge exchanges with world-
class industry players. Moving forward, SCG is dedicated to cultivating global alliances
to propel Thailand’s cement industry toward a Net Zero pathway, solidifying its 
position as ASEAN’s cement leader.
