The cement factory, which has been a major clinker producer in the country for the last two years, is aiming to supply 11 percent of the total national demand of cement that currently stands at 2 million tons.
Addressing a press meet organized on Friday to announce the launching of the cement, Managing Director of the factory Jeevan Nepal said the limestone mine that the factory has acquired will supply limestone for next 100 years. "We have maintained a stock of 400,000 tons of limestone to deal with unexpected obstruction in collecting limestone and the stock will be enough to support normal production for nine months," Nepal said.
Nepal said the factory has no immediate plan to go public but didn´t rule out such possibility in the days to come. As uncertain power supply has been the major challenge for the factory, Arun Rathi, director of the factory urged the government to pay due attention to ensure smooth power supply for big industries like the cement factory. Maruti Cement holds the ISO 2001 and ISO 14001 Quality Standard Marks.
