Lukavac Cement

What Lukavac Cement does

Lukavac Cement d.o.o. is the first cement manufacturer in Bosnia and Herzegovina, founded in 1974 in Lukavac and privatized in 2001. The company operates an integrated cement and clinker production complex with annual capacity exceeding 900,000 tonnes of cement and 700,000 tonnes of clinker, supplemented by an industrial quarry and three ready-mix concrete plants (two in Sarajevo, one in Banja Luka) operated by its subsidiary Lukavac Beton d.o.o. Cement and concrete are sold in bagged (25 kg, 20 kg) and bulk (rinfuza) formats directly via enterprise field-sales teams, cement dispatch operating 24/7 on weekdays and Saturdays.

The product portfolio includes six cement brands — Premiluk (CEM I 52,5 N), Supraluk (CEM II/B-M 42,5 N), Supraluk PLUS and Fineluk PLUS (green cements with 39% and 47% lower CO2 versus standard CEM I 52,5 N), Sulfaluk (CEM III/B 32,5 N SR-LH), and Lumal (masonry cement). Manufacturing is supported by a rotary-kiln process running on 70% alternative fuels (RDF/SRF) and an in-house accredited testing laboratory — the only one in BiH certified under BAS EN ISO/IEC 17025:2018 for SRF and hardened concrete testing. Lukavac Cement also holds ISO 9001, 14001, 45001, 50001, and 37301 certifications, the last making it the first ISO 37301-certified company in BiH and the Western Balkans.

Since December 2023, Lukavac Cement has been wholly owned by Hungary-based Talentis International Construction Investments Kft. EU-market cement sales are channeled through Lukavac Cement HR d.o.o., a trading entity established in Sesvete/Zagreb, Croatia. Customer base is split between large construction companies and infrastructure projects (primary segment), individual builders and SMBs purchasing bagged cement, and EU-market customers served through the Croatian subsidiary. Revenue is undisclosed. Pricing is handled bilaterally through direct enterprise contacts rather than published price lists.
