Singha's Sri Lanka terminal on track for 2015 completion

Singha Cement’s new state-of-the-art Sri Lankan cement terminal is on track for completion next year, doubling the company's existing capacity.

“The reason for this expansion is to meet the high demand for Singha cement in the country as well as to provide an enhanced, quality service to our customers,” Colin Nelson, managing director of the company, told Lanka Business Today.

Singha Cement, part of the Italcementi Group, currently operates a land based terminal at Peliyagoda in Colombo, for the handlling of bulk and bagged cement. ??The company is ISO 9001 certified and its cement is in compliance with SLS 107, meeting all Sri Lanka's required regulatory standards.
