Georgian Cement Association: 15 of 29 cements tested meet EU standards

A total of 15 out of 29 cement types in Georgia checked for quality meet the European EN197-1 standard, according to the Georgian Cement Association. The remainder use cheap and inappropriate materials, says the association, who coordinates quality control of cement on the Georgian market since 2017.  "We checked 36 samples of cement in November 2018 and only 13 of them met European standards," the association added.

The association supports domestic producers in manufacturing a product that meets the standard outlined on the packaging.
