Savannah Cement, a company selling cement products in East Africa is targeting specific entry into the road sector and has started manufacturing Hydraulic Road Binder (HRB) cement. This cement will be used to stabilize road surfaces.
The technology is built with the request from the Kenyan Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure. It has already been approved by the Kenya Bureau of Standards, which is a quality checking bureau of the government. The product is however being tested by the government ministry.
Stabilization of roads involves the appropriate combination of water, cement and soil, with the result being a hard, durable, paving material that forms the foundation of road and airport pavements.
The Savannah Cement HRB will sell at a price lower than the conventional cement, meaning that companies will save 30%
The impact is huge for country government and public ministries using the cement for road construction, because they will save too. For instance, Kenya could save over $227 million on road construction budget, according to Ronald Ndegwa the Managing Director at Savannah.
Earlier on 2014, Savannah stated that it would build a clinker plant worth over $200 million at Athi River in order to boost production.
The company also has manufacturing units across sub-Saharan Africa and its production capacity is 1.5 million tonnes.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I truly appreciate
your efforts and I will be waiting for your further write ups thanks once again.
naturally like your web site but you need to test the spelling
on several of your posts. A number of them are rife with spelling problems and
I find it very troublesome to inform the reality however I’ll certainly come back again.
Thanks for some other informative website. The place else could I get
that kind of info written in such an ideal approach? I have a project
that I am simply now working on, and I have been on the glance
out for such information.
I think the admin of this site is really working
hard for his website, since here every stuff is quality based
stuff.
