At the beginning of this century, with the structural adjustment and technological upgrading of the cement industry, annual energy reduction, and elimination of outdated production capacity, it gradually withdrew from the historical stage.

In 1959, the factory’s first rotary kiln production line with an annual output of 150000 tons of cement was put into operation, producing the first batch of large cement in Anhui Province.
