The company has noted a steady increase in the shipment of bagged cement, which was up 65% y/y in June. Eurocement introduced a new range of packaging products in April. The new 50 kg bags benefit from greater product protection, are more environmentally friendly and are convenient to carry and store. The new line of 1000 kg big bags also offer high strength and moisture resistance.
