- Kohat Cement Company Limited is a Pakistan-based construction materials company primarily engaged in the manufacturing, marketing, and distribution of cement and clinker. Founded in 1980 and headquartered in Lahore, Pakistan, the company operates integrated cement production facilities located in Kohat, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Kohat Cement offers a comprehensive portfolio of building materials catering to residential, commercial, industrial, and infrastructure development sectors. Its core product lineup includes Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), manufactured under the Kohat Cement brand for general construction, heavy civil engineering, and high-strength structural applications; Sulphate Resistant Cement (SRC), engineered for foundations, marine structures, and environments exposed to high sulphate concentrations and chemical soil degradation; White Portland Cement, produced for decorative, architectural, terrazzo, and specialized finishing applications; and Grey and White Clinker, supplied in bulk quantities for domestic and international cement grinding units. In addition to core cement production, the company manufactures multi-ply kraft paper bags and packaging materials through its wholly owned subsidiary, Ultra Kraft (Private) Limited, ensuring vertical integration and reliability in its packaging supply chain. Kohat Cement distributes its products across domestic markets throughout northern and central Pakistan, including Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Punjab, Azad Jammu and Kashmir, and the Islamabad Capital Territory, while also serving regional export markets, primarily Afghanistan. In recent developments, Kohat Cement has advanced significant strategic expansion and operational efficiency initiatives, including the development of a major greenfield cement manufacturing plant in Khushab, Punjab, aimed at increasing overall clinker production capacity and strengthening market penetration across Punjab. To reduce production costs and lower its environmental footprint, the company has expanded its captive power infrastructure by commissioning additional on-grid solar photovoltaic power plants, upgrading waste heat recovery power generation systems across its production lines, and enhancing alternative fuel and raw material handling systems to optimize fuel substitution and local coal utilization.
