Sweco has been chosen to help Lithuania's largest cement producer expand its
operations in the north of the country. The contract is worth close to EUR 2.6
million. 


”In December Sweco officially become Lithuania's largest consulting engineering
company. That gives us greater scope to compete for the large-scale initiatives
taking place in the country to modernise its society and industries,” says Per

Akmenės Cementas is the Baltic region's largest producer of cement. The company
is now expanding and building a new clinker production line. Sweco has been
given responsibility to prepare basic and detail design with focus on structural
engineering services. The project is scheduled for completion in 2009. 

The assignment will be performed by Sweco's consultants in Lithuania, where
Sweco is now the largest consulting company with 340 employees following an
acquisition in December 2007. Sweco's Lithuanian unit is specialised in
consulting services related to the water and environment, energy, building
service systems, infrastructure and structural engineering.
