The Company, which is headquartered in Xi'an the provincial capital of Shaanxi Province, operates three cement production plants in Pucheng, the first of which has been operational since 1977 and now have a combined production capacity of 1.5 million tonnes per annum. Two new lines are coming on line soon which will boost output by an additional 2 million tones. Some of this additional output will be seen in 2007 financial year, the rest in 2008 financial year.

The PRC Government is actively promoting the restructuring of the Chinese cement industry with a shift away from small-scale producers towards large, modern environmentally friendly production plants. This will benefit WCC are the smaller and more polluting plants are shut down and production at larger more efficient plans is ramped up, eg WCC.
