📅 1 day ago

Amrize is rolling out its 'Made in Canada' label for cement produced in its facilities nationwide, aligning with government infrastructure investments.

TORONTO – Amrize is set to introduce its 'Made in Canada' label across its domestic cement manufacturing operations, following an initial announcement made in March. This initiative will see the label applied in its production facilities located in Richmond, British Columbia, Exshaw, Alberta, Bath, Ontario, and Brookfield, Nova Scotia. The label adheres to the guidelines established by the Competition Bureau of Canada, signifying that Amrize cement is produced within Canada and contains over 90 percent Canadian content. Additionally, the company’s Saint-Constant plant, situated in the Montreal region, will receive the official designation of 'Manufactured in Québec,' which is administered by Les Produits du Québec.
The introduction of Amrize’s 'Made in Canada' label coincides with the Canadian government's commitment of $51 billion over the next ten years through the Building Communities Strong Fund. This funding aims to bolster public infrastructure, which includes transit systems, healthcare facilities, and essential services for new housing developments. Amrize has expressed that as Canada invests in its future, the company is also making significant investments to enhance production capacity and modernize its cement operations.
In a recent development, Amrize has commenced the modernization of its cement plant located outside of Montreal, marking what is reported to be the largest investment in the Canadian cement industry over the past decade. The company operates from a network of 450 sites throughout Canada, underscoring its extensive presence in the domestic market. Amrize's commitment to quality and local manufacturing is reflected in its initiatives, which aim to support the Canadian economy while meeting the growing demand for sustainable construction materials.
