Process

How every shipment is checked

  1. 1

    Production at the plant

    Cement is produced and stored in the silos of the supplying plant.

  2. 2

    Lab testing

    Strength, setting time and fineness are tested by the plant laboratory.

  3. 3

    Weighed at loading

    Each truck is weighed at the gate with a weighbridge ticket.

  4. 4

    Tested again at the border

    The buyer can sample the first 100 t at the border lab before the final contract.

Specification

Type II standard requirements

The limits that Portland cement Type II must meet under the Iranian standard ISIRI 389 (4th revision, 2020; strength grade 32.5) and the European standard EN 197-1 (CEM I, strength class 32.5R). The two standards use different cement type names.
