MANILA:Cement buyers reminded



When buying cement products, it would be wise to check the labels of cement bags to ensure the quality and type of the product.

“This is to avoid problems in the future,” the Cement Manufacturers Association of the Philippines said Monday.

CeMAP president Ernesto Ordoñez said consumers should buy the type of cement suitable for their construction needs, adding that there are different types of cement for different types of structures.

“Our members are undertaking an information campaign to provide consumers a better understanding of cement labels. They continue to give full support and compliance to government-imposed standards,” Ordoñez said.

Ordoñez said knowing and understanding cement bag labels would assure consumers they were buying the product suitable for their requirements.

“It is important to look for the Product Quality and Safety mark for domestically produced cement or the Import Commodity Clearance mark for imported cement,” Ordoñez said.
