Ras Al Khaimah Cement Company

What Ras Al Khaimah Cement Company does

Ras Al Khaimah Cement Company (RAKCC) is a UAE-based cement manufacturer incorporated in 1995 and headquartered in Ras Al Khaimah. It is listed on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange under the ticker RAKCC and operates as a subsidiary of the privately-held RAK Cement Investment Company PJSC (RAKCIC). The company runs a single integrated clinker and cement plant with nameplate capacities of 960,000 tons per year of clinker and 1,000,000–1,100,000 tons per year of finished cement, organized around a six-SKU product portfolio covering Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), Sulphate-Resisting Cement (SRC), MC-II / WALLCRETE masonry cement, Oilwell Cement (OWC), MSRC, and Powercrete oilwell/API-grade cement.

The plant is powered in part by a Waste Heat Recovery System that captured approximately 21% of plant electrical demand in 2020, integrating energy recovery with clinker production. Output is distributed through a dedicated facility at Saqr Port that supports vessels up to 40,000 dwt at loading rates up to 500 tons per hour, enabling direct seaborne export in addition to domestic supply. Certifications include ISO 9001:2015 and API, supporting both construction and oilfield-grade tenders.

The business model is B2B cement production for construction and oil & gas infrastructure markets. Revenue is generated through bagged and bulk cement sales delivered via field sales teams and a dedicated Customer Service Unit (CSU) to contractors, ready-mix operators, and oil & gas end-users, with export volumes routed through the Saqr Port terminal. The company does not appear to have meaningful product diversification beyond cement, and its earnings power is driven primarily by GCC cement pricing, capacity utilization, and energy costs.
