The World Cement Association (WCA) has welcomed CemAI as its newest Associate Corporate Member, as it continues to strengthen its commitment to innovation and digital transformation.
As cement producers face increasing pressure to improve efficiency, reduce costs and operate more sustainably, artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming a key enabler of smarter plant operations. CemAI is helping drive this transition by delivering AI-powered solutions that bring predictive maintenance and real-time process optimisation into the core of cement manufacturing.
By combining advanced machine learning with deep cement industry expertise, CemAI enables plants to move to predictive maintenance and closed-loop process optimisation. Its technology continuously analyses plant data to anticipate equipment failures, optimise process performance and stabilise production, supporting faster, more informed decision-making on site.
This approach delivers measurable operational benefits, including reduced unplanned downtime, lower maintenance costs, improved energy efficiency and increased throughput. Designed for fast deployment and rapid return on investment, CemAI’s solutions are already delivering results for cement producers in more than 15 countries.
“Digital technologies such as AI are becoming essential tools for improving efficiency, reliability and sustainability in cement production. We are pleased to welcome CemAI to the WCA and look forward to their contribution to innovation across our global membership,” said Philippe Richart, CEO of the WCA.
“At CemAI, we focus on turning complex plant data into clear, actionable insights and robust process control that deliver immediate value. Joining the WCA allows us to collaborate with industry leaders worldwide and continue supporting cement producers in building smarter, more efficient and more resilient operations,” highlights Scott Ziegler, CEO of CemAI.
