Fletcher Building reached an agreement with the New Zealand Government to support Golden Bay Cement’s domestic manufacturing at its Northland plant.
Government grant of up to $60 million aims to keep the Portland cement facility operating, citing supply-chain resilience and carbon-cost disadvantages versus imports.
Golden Bay Cement committed to produce at the site until at least 2040, with planned investment of at least $150 million through 2040.
The plant supplies nearly 60% of New Zealand’s cement, with about 95% of output sold domestically.
Independent assessment indicated the plant would likely close without support, shifting to an import-only model from 2030.
