Month: February 2021

On 12/29/2002, it started heating the oven at Mizu’s factory in Pacatuba, in the state of Sergipe.
Fruit of the entrepreneurial spirit of Polimix shareholders and of the pioneering spirit of Brazilian engineers, the first cement factory designed 100% in Brazil came out of the paper.
At that time, little was said about China and, in a bold strategy, we bought the main equipment in this country, with technology similar to that of European countries, and which over time proved to have excellent performance.
As our Business Philosophy is centered on human beings and on valuing local labor, most of the plant’s members were hired in cities close to the project and remain at the unit to this day.
At the time, they were young people who had just finished high school, who were intensively trained and now occupy leadership positions.
The factory’s natural wear and tear, which was accelerated by the sea air after 18 years of operation, forced us to carry out a complete revitalization and modernization of the unit, which included:
– construction and renovation of warehouses, conveyor belts and administrative office;
– services for revitalization and general maintenance of silos, grinding, clinkerization, gas conditioning and cooler;
– overhaul and general adjustments of the entire electrical part.
With a new face, Pacatuba restarts its activities this month.
A fresh start to serve our customers in the region even better.
