LafargeHolcim’s Indian company, Ambuja Cement, developed tailor-made logistics to ensure the regular delivery of over 300 000 t of high quality cement to the remote area. The technical services team provided complete technical support, including conducting cement mix design trials to achieve optimized mix proportion. Following this, it was observed that Ambuja Cement retained its strength, despite the low temperatures in the region. The company held self-compacting concrete workshops for engineers to upgrade their knowledge and skills, and also provided continuous support at the construction site, to identify, diagnose and quickly resolve problems. The Group began providing materials to the project in 2010.
