Cementos Argos SA along with its local partners and distributor National Hardware (Guyana) Ltd launched its latest innovation, Soluble Smart Pack Cement, on Friday.

A demonstration of the product was carried out at National Hardware, showing how the cement bag becomes mortar. The aim is to provide more environmentally-friendly ways of disposing of the cement bags.

Argos said that: "innovation is the only way to remain competitive in order to offer the best and more efficient solutions to our clients. It is with great pride that we are introducing the Soluble Smart Pack Cement to Guyana which will be available all across Guyana, in hardware stores of our local partners at the current price of Argos Cement."

The demonstration was held at the Industrial Site, Ruimveldt, with a presentation from Joslyn De La Cruz, Argos technical advisor, and Jose Guillermo Araujo, Argos international sales manager.
