Hungarian producer Duna-Dráva Cement plans an investment which will boost efficiency at the plant and bring it in line with EU environmental norms, company president-CEO Miklós Oberritter. The new kilns will reduce the plant’s emissions of CO2 as well as dust, sales and marketing director János Szarkandi said. The project is expected to start in 2007.
