Tokyo Cement Group won two awards at the Annual Green and Sustainability Awards 2024 recently.
The company’s new product, Tokyo Superset Multi-Purpose Mortar, received the Gold Award, while its innovative solution, Pervious Concrete from Tokyo Supermix (Pvt) Limited, the Group’s Ready-Mix Concrete (RMC) business unit, secured the Silver Award in Sustainable Products and Systems category at the awards ceremony organised by the Ceylon Institute of Builders (CIOB).
The 12th World Construction Symposium and Green and Sustainability Awards Night hosted by CIOB and the University of Moratuwa, offered a platform to share knowledge and insights on promoting sustainable built environments.
It was followed by the Annual Green Awards ceremony.
The multi-purpose mortar is a revolutionary cement mortar application, which was introduced as an environment-friendly and efficient solution for brick/block laying, internal and external plastering, and floor rendering.
It is a pre-blended, ready-to-use solution that only requires the addition of water to apply, as opposed to the troublesome traditional method of preparing cement mortar.
Pervious Concrete by Tokyo Supermix won the Silver Award in recognition of its unique mix design that allows water to infiltrate through its surface onto the underlying soil.
