About
SCG Cement is the cement and building materials arm of Siam Cement Group, Thailand’s largest cement producer. Through its internal startup ‘Arbon’ it operates an industrial-scale pyrolysis plant in Saraburi (3,600 t/yr biochar) and sells biochar-infused concrete, and is listed as a Puro.earth CORC supplier. Cement manufacturing remains the company’s primary business; biochar CDR is an adjacent low-carbon product line.
