Background
The Kunda plant is the only cement plant in Estonia. The plant has undergone a number of name changes, including Red Kunda between 1957-1991 when the company was under USSR control. Upon the collapse of the USSR, the company was renamed Kunda Nordic Tsement in 1992. It was modernized in the late 1990s under the Swedish Scancem group, and in 1999 became part of Heidelberg Cement. Although the plant historically produced clinker and cement, it has operated only as a clinker grinding plant since 2020.
