“As the leading low-carbon cement producer in the region, SCG is dedicated to creating innovative solutions that minimize resource use and enhance ecological sustainability. By continuously reducing carbon dioxide emissions, we are responding proactively to the changing demands and adaptation challenges faced by the construction industry in ASEAN and beyond.”

In addition to showcasing its cutting-edge LC3 low-carbon cement prototype during the exhibition, SCG organized an exclusive site tour of its Ta Luang Cement Plant in Saraburi Province for international delegates. The tour and displays emphasized:

• SCG LC3 Structural Cement: Composed of limestone, calcined clay, and specialized additives, this next-generation low-carbon cement reduces CO2 emissions by up to 30-40%. Its manufacturing process integrates a maximum of 40% biomass alternative fuels (including rice husks and straw) and over 35% renewable energy, maintaining product performance and structural integrity, as verified by an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD).
• Rondo Heat Battery: SCG introduced ASEAN’s first Rondo Heat Battery at the Ta Luang Cement Plant. In collaboration with Rondo Energy, this advanced thermal energy storage technology converts intermittent renewable energy into ultra-high temperature thermal energy, with storage capabilities reaching 1,500°C. With an impressive energy recovery rate of up to 97% and a lifespan exceeding 40 years, this system provides continuous clean heat around the clock, assisting in the decarbonization of industrial manufacturing processes.

• Refractory Solutions by The Siam Refractory Industry Co., Ltd. (SRIC): As a leading global provider of refractory solutions, SRIC showcased its innovative technologies designed to improve operational efficiency, reliability, and sustainability, including:
  1. Anti-Hydration Brick: The world’s first Anti-Hydration brick, extending its shelf life from 6 to 24 months. This innovative solution reduces material degradation, minimizes production downtime, and boosts overall operational efficiency.
  2. Thermal Media for Heat Battery: Developed in collaboration with Rondo Energy, these high-performance heat storage blocks achieve thermal efficiency of up to 97%, ensuring reliable 24-hour energy availability and supporting a transition towards cleaner industrial energy solutions.
     • Solar Floating: Installed at the Ta Luang Cement Plant, this floating solar array generates 16.6 million kWh of clean electricity annually, lowering greenhouse gas emissions by over 8,000 tons of CO₂ equivalent each year. By utilizing the plant’s industrial reservoirs, the system enhances resource efficiency and exemplifies SCG’s commitment to integrating green energy into heavy industry.

As a co-host of Cemtech ASIA 2026, SCG reaffirmed its position as a trustworthy leader in the global industry. The event served as a significant catalyst for expanding business networks and facilitating high-level exchanges of technology and expertise among world-class industry participants. Looking ahead, SCG remains committed to fostering global partnerships to guide Thailand’s cement sector toward a Net Zero trajectory, further solidifying its leadership role in ASEAN.
