The football team was re-founded in the same year, under the name of Atletic Fieni and in 2011, after some years of struggle, promoted back in the national divisions, but due to the same financial problems the club chose not to enroll in division. After some years spent at the level of the Liga IV, Atletic Fieni was re-organized once again, now under the name of CSM Fieni, in 2017.
During the communist period, Cimentul was an important third tier club, then in the 1990s reached its peak, promoting to Divzia B and playing a top-flight promotion play-off, in 2002, but lost in front of Sportul Studențesc. The constancy of the team, during three decades (1970s, 1980s and 1990s) it was given by the local Cement Factory (ROMCIF), one of the most important in Romania.
