After lunch, Tajik engineer Firdavs Hasanov inspects a batching unit at the new Tajik Cement CJSC plant – a 35-hectare facility on the outskirts of Dushanbe powered by advanced Chinese technology and equipment. The old plant, where Firdavs worked for a decade, shut down because it was outdated, costly and heavily polluting.

Now, the new plant enables smart production monitoring, meeting Tajikistan's development and export needs while revitalizing the nation's cement industry.
