With the intention to ensure there is sustainability in its operations, the management of the Demerara Harbour Bridge Company’s Asphalt Plant is moving to procure a bitumen emulsion plant.
Plant Manager Rory Ramdas yesterday told Stabroek News that it is a move by the company to ensure they remain competitive and sustainable. He noted that the plant currently produces asphalt only.
The bitumen emulsion plant will ensure a steady supply of bitumen for asphalt production but will also allow them to retail the emulsion to road builders, generating a new stream of income.
