INSEE Cement running at full production capacity to meet local demand

Maintains continuous supply to local market with non-stop, optimum production at Galle and Puttalam cement plants and its import terminal in Colombo Port

INSEE Cement – Sri Lanka’s only local cement manufacturer continues to supply its range of retail and industrial cement products to the market and geared up its production to full capacity. This, to reduce the currently experiencing product shortage in the country as a result of several cement importers refusing to meet the demand.

Along with the recent depreciation of the LKR, some cement importers have refused to release their goods based on increased import costs, creating an artificial scarcity in the market. Currently running at a 3.6 million ton full production capacity, INSEE Cement is stepping up its express logistics, delivery channels and bulk carrier fleet to ensure the recovering local construction industry is not needlessly and negatively impacted by any potential shortage of cement, which is listed under essential commodities with a fixed MRP. INSEE Cement is especially focussing on serving the critical infrastructure projects and government institutions, such as Central expressway, irrigation projects, RDA & UDA, and BMC/NHDA, to enable progress of projects as planned. This is also supported by our parent company by providing uninterrupted material supplies.
