ETA Ascon Group has consolidated its cement manufacturing capabilities under the brand name Star Cement.

The move brings together manufacturing subsidiaries, Arabian Gulf Cement of Ajman and Hyundai Tiger Cement of Bahrain, under the Star Cement umbrella.
Star Cement has majority control of five cement plants across the Middle East, Indian sub continent and North Africa regions.
Star Cement has two plants in the emirates, one each in Abu Dhabi and Ajman, one in Bahrain, another in Bangladesh and Sudan.
“This is our first move to consolidate our position in the Indian sub-continent, Middle East and North Africa regions where the cement market is rather fragmented,” says Ahmed Salahuddin, business development manager.
