PRACTICAL GUIDE

Compare the options before you choose

Company, cement brand or plant?

Some choices are standalone producers; others are brands or operations within a larger group. Lafarge Africa is now HBM Nigeria Plc; UniCem and Ashaka belong to the same group. Compare the specific product offered locally rather than assuming every name represents a separate parent company.

Choose the specified product

Ask your project engineer or qualified building professional which cement specification your work requires. Check the manufacturer’s product documentation and packaging. A vote position does not replace a project specification.

Check supply and delivered cost

Use established supply channels and compare the same product, quantity and delivery location. Check packaging condition, storage arrangements and delivery terms. Obtain a dated quote rather than relying on a universal price per bag.
