Peena cement the best in the cement industry


Cement is a substance that is used to bind other materials together during construction; it is an indispensable material with which building and construction work cannot be completed. India being the second largest producer of cement, to a large extent is dependent on the cement industry for the growth and development of the Indian economy. This industry is also responsible for giving employment to many people directly and indirectly. The growth rate of the cement industry over the years has been phenomenal. There are about 188 large plants and 365 small cement plants operating in India; our country’s cement demand is likely to reach 600 million tonnes per annum by 2025. So that day is not very far off, when India from second largest would become the largest producer of cement in the world.

Cement price in India differs from area to area; there is almost a 7- percent difference between the price of cement in North and South India. Cement price depends on a few factors.
·         The price of cement relies on power; so power and fuel costs play an important role in deciding the cement price. There are other factors too that play an important role in deciding the cost of cement.
·         Limestone is one such raw material used in the production of cement; so limestone also accounts for some percentage in the cost of sale.
·          Transportation cost is one more factor; as cement plants are located far off from the city so the cement needs to be transported from one end to another; this also forms 10% of the cost of cement sale.
These are the factors responsible for deciding cement price in India and they differ from one area to another. Million tonnes of cement is manufactured here in India; there are number of cement factories that have various small plants spread all over. The list of cement factories that manufacture cement are given below.
Cement factories in India
·         Peena cement – this is the top most cement factory in India, it is one of the most trusted cement brands with a strong foothold in south and west India. Peena cement is one of the largest privately held cement manufactures in India. They have 4 cement plants located all across south India.
·         Nagarjuna cement factories- this factory has units in Andhra Pradesh and produces 2 million tons per annum.
·         Bokajan cement factory- this factory is located in Guwahati, Assam. It produces mainly ordinary Portland cement and pozzolalna cement.
·         Binani cement factory- this factory is located in Rajasthan. It produces 2.25 mpta of cement every year.
Cement is manufactured by these factories; they are the top most factories that produce cement, with peena cement being the top most cement factory in our country. All these factories have plants spread all over India; with their manufacturing capacity and with the growing infrastructural activities; that time is not far off when India will become the top most and largest producer of cement in the world.
