Carmix 3500 TC introduces newrange of self-loading concrete mixers

The product incorporates a new electronic dosing system for ingredients,which supports easy and intuitive creation and management of up to 20 mix-designs with 99 different components, taking into account the moisture content of the materials involved.

The new Carmix 3500 TC was recently presented at the world’s leading exhibition, Bauma, in Munich. On the occasion of its 40th anniversary, once again, the company based in Venice has revolutionised the self-loading concrete mixer world with a model intended to break with convention. For Carmix, the trade show in Las Vegas, Conexpo, where it was present in March 2017, was an essential event for continuing its path of development in Latin American markets, which consider Conexpo a benchmark trade show. "In recent years, the company has continuously strengthened its presence in the traditional markets of South America. Now, thanks to an agreement with Caterpillar, Metalgalante is consolidating its own market in Central America, where Carmix is one of the strengths of the CAT Rental Store. Due to its high performance, reliability and, above all, user-friendliness and versatility, Carmix models are an excellent solution for rental, since they can produce high-quality concrete at a low cost and in any situation.

CARMIX 3500 TC: A REAL MOBILE CONCRETE MIXER

The new Carmix 3500 TC is a further development that has made Carmix a real mobile concrete mixer. The new machine can be recognised at a glance thanks to its innovative design with rounded lines, although its technological core is what really makes all the difference. A new electronic dosing system for ingredients is standard supplied for this model: the Concrete Mate allows easy and intuitive creation and management of up to 20 mix-designs with 99 different components, taking into account the moisture content of the materials involved. Furthermore, on this model, Carmix has introduced Promix, a genuine laboratory, which, by means of a stainless steel probe in the concrete mixer, allows the operator to instantly control data concerning concrete like parameters on slump, temperature, volume, etc. It can be considered a real mobile concrete mixer, since it can be fitted with an automatic dosing system for additives for preparing any type of concrete required.

GREATER FOCUS ON THE NORTH AMERICAN MARKET
This year, in addition to traditionally focusing its attention on the Latin America market, Carmix intends to develop its growing interest in the North American market. Due to their dimensions and distances, Canada and especially the USA offer excellent potential for these products with a multitude of applications, high quality and lack of competitors in North America.

JSW Cement has commissioned an additional 1 million tonne per annum (MTPA) cement grinding unit at its Nagaur Integrated Plant in Rajasthan. The commissioning takes the company’s total cement grinding capacity to 25.10 MTPA.

JSW Cement’s total clinker manufacturing capacity, including its joint venture JSW Cement FZC, now stands at 9.74 MTPA.

The company began operations in North India in March 2026 with the Nagaur Integrated Plant, comprising a 3.30 MTPA clinkerisation unit and a 2.50 MTPA cement grinding unit. With the latest expansion, the plant’s total grinding capacity has increased to 3.50 MTPA.

The additional capacity will cater to cement demand across Rajasthan, Haryana, Punjab and the National Capital Region (NCR). The expansion has been funded through a combination of equity and long-term debt.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2026, JSW Cement also commissioned an Alternate Fuel Handling System and a Waste Heat Recovery System (WHRS) at the Nagaur plant.

Nilesh Narwekar, CEO, JSW Cement, said the additional grinding capacity was a strategic priority for the company’s expansion in North India. He added that the Alternate Fuel Handling System and WHRS were expected to reduce production costs.

The Boards of Directors of JSW Cement and its listed subsidiary Shiva Cement have approved a scheme of arrangement for the amalgamation of Shiva Cement with and into JSW Cement. The proposed merger is intended to create a unified cement platform and generate operational, financial and management synergies.

The consolidation will pool the companies’ financial, managerial, technical, distribution and marketing resources. It will also support backward integration through Shiva Cement’s clinker facility, which is expected to reduce reliance on external procurement and improve supply chain efficiency.

The companies said the transaction would provide greater funding flexibility, reduce financing costs and eliminate inter-company guarantees. It is also expected to simplify the corporate structure by reducing administrative duplication, compliance requirements and consolidation efforts, while aligning the financial statements of both entities.

Under the approved share-exchange ratio, JSW Cement will issue five equity shares with a face value of Rs. 10 each for every 41 equity shares with a face value of Rs. 2 each held in Shiva Cement. The issuance will apply to Shiva Cement shareholders other than JSW Cement and will give the subsidiary’s public shareholders direct ownership in a larger listed company.

The scheme remains subject to approvals from the stock exchanges, the Securities and Exchange Board of India, the National Company Law Tribunal, the Odisha Industrial Infrastructure Development Corporation and other applicable statutory and regulatory authorities. Approval from the companies’ shareholders and creditors may also be required under applicable laws or directions from the tribunal. The transaction is expected to be completed within 12 to 14 months, subject to the timely receipt of these approvals.
