About Votoran
Votoran is Votorantim's flagship Brazilian cement brand, first produced on 18 January 1936 when the newly built Santa Helena plant's kiln fired for the first time, at a daily output of 250 tonnes. The company's own anniversary materials credit its early reputation to landmark São Paulo public works of the late 1930s, including the rebuilt Chá Viaduct. It remains the best-known of Votorantim's four regional Brazilian cement brands today and is sold alongside concretes, mortars, plasticizers and additives made in the same plants.

About the owner: Votorantim Cimentos
Votorantim Cimentos is a privately held company headquartered in São Paulo, Brazil, founded in 1936. Brandtree records 7 brands under its control.
Votorantim Cimentos is a building-materials and sustainable-solutions company that traces its cement business to the Santa Helena plant that began operating in the city of Votorantim, São Paulo state, on 18 January 1936. It is one of the world's largest cement producers, with an installed capacity of 54 million tonnes a year and plants in nine countries across the Americas, Europe and Asia. It is wholly owned: its 2025 Integrated Report states it is 'part of the portfolio of companies owned by Votorantim S.A., a permanent capital investment holding company that owns 100% of our shares' — Votorantim S.A. is the much broader family holding that also controls businesses in aluminium, mining, energy and financial services, so this file seeds the cement operating company rather than the holding.
