Cement Industry

Regain HiCAl products are high quality mineral products to enhance the efficiency of Portland clinker and cement manufacture and reduce production cost and emissions.

HiCAl (Higher Clinker Alite) represents a new option for cement manufacturers world-wide to enhance the profitability and sustainability of their operations.

The Power of the Clinker Factor

The clinker-to-cement ratio, commonly known as the clinker factor, is the single most effective lever for cement manufacturers looking to optimise operations and slash environmental impact. Lowering this ratio directly delivers a triple-bottom-line win:

• Decreases Carbon Footprint: Minimises the process and thermal emissions generated during resource-heavy calcination.
• Lowers Specific Energy Consumption: Lowers kiln thermal demand, reducing fuel consumption per tonne of finished product.
• Reduces Production Costs: Maximises output efficiency by substituting expensive clinker with high-performance alternative materials.

Because of its critical role in industrial decarbonisation, the clinker factor is the primary performance indicator tracked by global climate frameworks and trade authorities. Regain HiCAL products enable cement producers to safely lower their clinker factors, providing a high-performance additive material that reduces carbon intensity.

The cement industry has been successfully using HiCAl products since 1997.
