“Dragon crews, supported by several contractor companies, worked around the clock for six weeks to repair and replace building structures, conduit and wires, motors, gearboxes, bearings, material transport equipment, etc. required for operation,” the company said. “Safety was at the top of the priority list. No injuries occurred during the March 26 fire, and Dragon continued to maintain the focus on safety, reporting no injuries throughout the six-week rebuild process.”

“After six weeks of hard work, our dedicated team of Dragon Cement employees and supporting contractors returned the plant to full operational status,” said Plant Manager Martin Turecky. “I appreciate the determined effort by all involved to ensure Dragon’s future as a leading supplier and partner to our many customers in the New England market. Furthermore, I am extremely proud of the Dragon team for keeping safety at the forefront of this project and completing this monumental task with zero injuries.”
