We are proud to announce that our Kanthan Cement Plant has successfully passed its final audit for ISO50001 certification. This achievement marks an important milestone for YTL Cement, as all our integrated cement plants are now ISO50001 certified. This certification is more than a recognition of operational excellence but also marks as a testament to our commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency, reinforcing our role as a leader in sustainable construction practices in Malaysia.

Kanthan’s certification reflects our dedication to reducing environmental impact while maintaining operational excellence. This milestone positions YTL Cement as a key partner in driving Malaysia’s green agenda. The certification of all our plants being ISO50001 underscores our commitment to sustainability, from adopting eco-friendly technologies to empowering employees to champion energy efficiency initiatives.

Why ISO50001 Matters

ISO50001 is the international standard for energy management systems, designed to help organisations improve energy performance, reduce energy consumption, and minimise greenhouse gas emissions. This framework aligns closely with YTL Cement’s sustainability goals. By implementing energy-efficient practices certified under ISO50001, YTL Cement is setting an example for the industry, helping to reduce the sector’s carbon footprint and driving the industry’s shift towards sustainable construction.
