What Sibline does

Sibline (Ciment de Sibline sal) is a private Lebanese cement and construction-materials producer founded in 1987, headquartered in Beirut, with its main cement plant in Sibline/Shouf. It manufactures clinker and cement, ready-mix concrete through SO.I.ME Liban, and concrete building materials including hollow and solid blocks, EPS-insert insulated blocks, lintel and hourdi blocks, pavers, curbstones, and segmental retaining walls. Its customers are B2B construction buyers in Lebanon, including contractors, municipalities, infrastructure and government projects, and residential or commercial developers.

The operating base is asset-heavy industrial production rather than software: quarrying and raw-meal processing, kiln firing, clinker milling, batching-plant concrete production, laboratory quality control, and a proprietary lightweight-block concrete mix with a density range of 700 to 2,400 kg/m3. Reported scale includes annual cement production exceeding 1.35 million tons, clinker production of 3,400 tons per day, SO.I.ME Liban ready-mix annual capacity of 200,000 m3, and 530 direct employees plus indirect logistics, transportation, and distribution employment. Product and process credibility is supported by Libnor certification, CE marking eligibility for CEM II/AL 42.5N, ISO 9001/14001/45001, NRMCA, and EN 771-3:2011-related disclosures.

Revenue mechanics appear to be direct B2B product sales rather than recurring contracts: bagged and bulk cement, delivered ready-mix concrete, and building-material products sold through direct commercial relationships and domestic distribution/logistics channels. No public pricing or revenue figure is disclosed; the business is therefore underwritten primarily through production capacity, domestic market position, customer/project references, certifications, and vertical integration across cement, ready-mix, and downstream building materials.
