Amrize launches 'Product of Canada' label for Canadian builders

The ‘Product of Canada’ label signifies that all aspects of the cement are made in Canada from raw materials and processing to manufacturing, meeting applicable national requirements. This label will be rolled out at key Amrize cement operations in the country, beginning at its flagship Exshaw cement plant in Alberta, the largest cement plant in Canada, as well as at its Bath cement plant in Ontario.

With 5 cement plants in Canada, Amrize is Canada’s top cement producer with an unparalleled and highly efficient distribution network to serve as the local partner with national scale. To expand its 'Product of Canada' cement offering, Amrize is investing to increase production capacity across its cement network nationwide from Exshaw, Alberta to St. Constant, Quebec. This is part of Amrize’s plan to invest CAN$900 million in capital investments across its operations in 2026.

“With our ‘Product of Canada’ label, we are giving customers confidence that their building solutions are made in Canada with local-to-local service,” said Cory Cannon, Senior Vice President of Canada Cement Commercial for Amrize. “For more than 100 years, we have been proud to be Canada’s leading cement producer supplying high-performance and innovative building solutions helping meet the country’s growing infrastructure and construction needs. We are committed to investing in and advancing Canada’s building industry, supporting jobs, communities and the economy.”

Cement has long been the foundation of Canada’s growth – building the infrastructure that connects communities and powers the economy. According to the Cement Association of Canada, the cement industry contributes CAN$5 billion to the Canadian economy every year and supports over 62 000 Canadian jobs.

Cement is essential to housing, transportation, energy, and critical infrastructure – building Canadian cities, communities, and future. With a legacy of building Canada for over 100 years, Amrize has helped shape many of the country’s most recognisable landmarks with its advanced building solutions – from iconic sites like the Rogers Centre stadium in Toronto, the Confederation Bridge linking Prince Edward Island to New Brunswick, the Champlain Bridge in Montreal, and essential infrastructure including Vancouver International Airport (YVR), and Calgary International Airport (YYC).

In Canada, Amrize operates from about 450 sites with more than 7500 teammates supporting customers in every province.
