Ramco Launches ‘Hard Worker’ Brand, Targets Rs 20 Billion Revenue

The Ramco Cements, a leading south-based cement manufacturer, has launched its new ‘Hard Worker’ brand of construction chemical products, targeting revenues of Rs 20 billion in the segment over the next four to five years.
The Chennai-headquartered company, part of the Ramco Group, has been selling tile adhesives under the ‘Ramco’ brand since 2001. With the new Hard Worker range, Ramco has expanded its portfolio to 20 specialised products, including tile adhesives, waterproofing solutions, bonding agents and repair mortars. It also plans to add another 20 products in the coming years.
“The revenue from the Construction Chemicals division stood at Rs 2.1 billion in FY25, with a goal to scale this to Rs 20 billion within the next 4–5 years,” said AV Dharmakrishnan, CEO, The Ramco Cements.
The Indian construction chemicals market is projected to reach Rs 400 billion by 2030, fuelled by rapid urbanisation and infrastructure development. Currently, the Hard Worker range is available in southern and eastern states, with Ramco set to leverage its extensive cement distribution network for further expansion.
For FY25, Ramco Cements reported revenues of over Rs 85 billion and profits of Rs 4.17 billion. The company operates 11 cement plants — five integrated units and six grinding units — with a clinker capacity of 16 MTPA and a cement capacity of 24.44 MTPA.
Shares of The Ramco Cements closed flat at Rs 1,083.10 on the NSE on Tuesday. Founded in 1961, the company is one of India’s leading cement manufacturers, with a strong presence across South and East India.
