Kiln outage at Adbri Cement Birkenhead manufacturing facility

9 September, 2024

There was a kiln outage and short-term higher than usual emissions this afternoon at the Adbri Cement Birkenhead manufacturing facility.

The emissions may have been visible to the some in the community, however; the prevailing wind conditions were such that the wind direction was blowing across the site and away from the community.

As part of the kiln outage, the fire service was automatically alerted and attended the site.

We will continue investigating and provide an update once the kiln has been restarted.
