Cement Bagging Plants
Kerala consumes around 10 million tonnes per annum of cement. However, only 8 % of the same is manufactured within the State. There is therefore great scope for facilities for importing and distributing cement at the Port. The Port already has operational facilities of Ambuja Cements, UltraTech Cements and Zuari Cements. These facilities typically involve pneumatic suction of cement from the vessels, storage in silos and bagging and dispatch of the same as per requirement for the market.
There is scope for two more such plants in the Port.
