Ramco Cements Ltd has introduced Ramco Super Plaster, a new plastering and brickwork solution.

Ramco Super Plaster is a non-refractory plaster and brick mortar concentrate with several advantages, including greater workability, lower rebound loss, higher productivity, higher coverage of 10% or more, m-sand compatibility, and higher durability, according to a statement.

P R Venketrama Raja, the company's Chairman and Managing Director told the media that the cement is packaged in a convenient 25 kg bag. It's easy to transport and use for small jobs. Super Plaster, on the other hand, should only be used for plastering and brickwork and not for load-bearing applications.

AV Dharmakrishnan, Chief Executive Officer of the company told the media that Ramco Super Plaster is a high-value mortar designed specifically for plastering and brickwork. The product gives the walls more coverage and better crack resistance. It's also very easy to work with when using M-sand.

Balaji K Moorthy, Executive Director (Marketing) told the media the goal of Ramco Super Plaster is to segment the market and focus on the right product for the right application.

Ramco Group's flagship company, Ramco Cements Limited, is a well-known business conglomerate in South India. Chennai is the company's headquarters.

Ramco Cements Limited's main product is Portland cement, which is produced in eight state-of-the-art production facilities with a total capacity of 16.45 mtpa, including Integrated Cement Plants and Grinding Units. Ramco Cements Limited is the country's fifth-largest cement producer. The company also manufactures Ready Mix Concrete and Dry Mortar, as well as operating one of the country's largest wind farms.
