Cimsa Brings Global Expertise and Next-Generation Materials to Thailand’s Construction Industry

Çimsa, a global innovator in advanced building materials, made a strong impact at the Thailand Coatings and Construction Day 2025, held at the Grand Centre Point Lumpini in Bangkok. Organized by DKSH Performance Materials, the event brought together Southeast Asia’s leading stakeholders in construction, coatings, and sustainability, providing a unique platform for innovation and collaboration.

As the world’s second-largest white cement producer and third-largest calcium aluminate cement (CAC) manufacturer, Çimsa showcased its transformation from a traditional cement producer into a forward-thinking building materials company. Through an interactive booth and an engaging 45-minute technical session, the company presented its vision for the future of sustainable construction, highlighting its global R&D capabilities in Asia and Europe and unveiling its latest solutions—Recipro 40-S and DURO—the newest members of Çimsa’s Calcium Aluminate Family, tailored to meet the evolving needs of Thailand’s growing infrastructure market.

“Thailand’s rapid development and sustainability ambitions perfectly align with our mission,” said Onur Yazgan, Çimsa White Cement Marketing and Sales VP. “The world is changing fast, and companies must be where the market is—close to customers, understanding their challenges, and co-creating solutions. For us, this event was about more than presenting products; it was about strengthening partnerships and shaping the future of sustainable construction together.”

The invitation-only event attracted a highly engaged audience of product developers, procurement leaders, and sustainability strategists, reinforcing Çimsa’s role as a trusted innovation partner in Southeast Asia. By bridging global expertise with local market needs, Çimsa continues to drive solutions that enable low-carbon, energy-efficient construction—helping the region build smarter and greener for generations to come.
