History of Cement

Manufacture of cement has a history, which traces back to millennia. The Romans who were prolific builders used burnt calcareous (calcium bearing) rocks along with pozzolanic materials in an era Before Christ. The structures built by them, like the Pantheon, are still there for us to see proving the goodness of cementitious materials as input material for construction.Post industrialization and as infrastructure development started globally, demands for cement have been growing steadily both quantitatively & qualitatively.

India is the second largest cement producer in the world after China and cement consumption has been growing at a CAGR of over 8% p.a. in the last five years.

The group cement facilities are located in the Satna cluster, which has one of the highest cement production growth rates in India .
