- Asia Cement Corporation engages primarily in the manufacture and sale of cement, clinker, ready-mixed concrete, and related cement products in China and Taiwan. Its product portfolio includes various types of Portland cement, hearthstone powder, plaster, silica sand, and granulated blast-furnace slag. The company also operates in diversified business segments including electric power generation, investment, engineering, transportation, stainless steel manufacturing, leasing, warehousing, real estate development, and afforestation. Asia Cement offers both wholesale and retail sales of building materials and undertakes waste treatment services. Founded in 1957 and headquartered in Taipei, Taiwan, it has expanded its business footprint through subsidiaries such as Ya Tung Ready-Mix and strategic investments in companies like Far Eastern New Century, U-Ming Marine Transport, and Yuan Long Stainless Steel Corporation.
Recent major company changes reflect Asia Cement’s strategic diversification beyond its core cement business. In 2025, the company announced a significant investment of approximately TWD 2.52 billion (about USD 84 million) in a large-scale battery energy storage project in Kaohsiung’s Siaogang District, aiming to participate in Taiwan Power Company’s energy storage system starting in the fourth quarter of 2025. This reflects a broader strategic shift to diversify revenue streams and strengthen profitability amid market pressures from fluctuating cement prices, especially in China. In addition, Asia Cement and IX Renewables signed a cooperation agreement for the "Rui Li 1" floating offshore wind project in late 2025, marking a move into renewable energy sectors. The company continues emphasizing ESG (environmental, social, governance) governance and low-carbon building materials, underscoring its commitment to sustainability through technology-driven innovation and green business practices.
Asia Cement operates across extensive geographic markets, primarily Taiwan and China, with international business extensions via its strategic investments. Its target customers range from infrastructure and construction sectors to industrial and environmental markets. The company maintains a comprehensive product and service assortment oriented toward building materials, energy, and environmental solutions. It continues to uphold its position in the cement industry while actively expanding into energy storage and renewable energy sectors as part of its evolving business strategy to adapt to global sustainability trends.
