They are a proudly Guatemalan company that started in 1899 after the dream of Mr. Carlos Federico Novella Kleé, an enterprising and committed man. Their experience, over a century, has allowed them to be recognized for their high quality standards in the production and marketing of cement, concrete, lime and other products and services for construction.

From the beginning, they have based their activities on the values ​​that their founder inherited from them. At present, they have a Code of Values, Ethics and Conduct -COVEC- that guides them to an ethical behavior, genuine leadership, solidarity and commitment to the sustainability of the company. Thanks to the experience of their code, together with their Leadership Agenda, they have been recognized as a great place to work in the region and in Latin America by the Great Place to Work Institute. In addition, the Ethisphere Institute has named them among the most ethical companies in the world.
