Who we are

Your international cement desk, based in the United States.

Domestic production doesn't always meet US demand for cement. We help close that gap with imported material that meets US specifications, priced competitively and delivered on schedule.

  • One accountable US counterparty from mill to delivery
  • Specification-first sourcing to ASTM and AASHTO standards
  • Transparent documentation: certificates, surveys and test reports
  • Flexible volumes, from spot cargoes to annual supply programs
