Tokyo Cement Group

Tokyo Cement Company (Lanka) PLC was established in 1982, as a joint venture between Japan’s Nippon Coke & Engineering Company and Sri Lanka’s St. Anthony’s Consolidated, under the visionary leadership of Founder Chairman, late Deshamanya A.Y.S. Gnanam. Listed on the Colombo Stock Exchange in 1984 as the first privately owned cement manufacturer, the company has made an indelible mark in transforming the country’s construction industry. As the largest manufacturer of cement and concrete, the company operates the country’s only ISO certified cement and concrete testing lab. Keeping quality at the forefront of operations, Tokyo Cement is the first local company to achieve ISO 14001 Environment Management Systems Certification and the first cement manufacturer to achieve ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems Certification. The company was awarded “Green Mark” for Tokyo Super Portland Pozzolana Cement for its environment friendly manufacturing process. Maintaining its pioneering streak, Tokyo Cement continues to invest in innovative processes, modern factories and top-grade raw material to raise the bar on quality and cement its market position as a trailblazer. Tokyo Cement has successfully integrated social welfare and environmental conservation into its corporate DNA and is on a continuous mission to enrich the country, its people and the environment. Tokyo Cement Group is one of the largest (non-hydro) contributors of renewable energy in the nation and is the pioneer of the biomass energy initiative in Sri Lanka. Their social commitment breathes life through initiatives that build foundations for tomorrows leaders by working with school children, professional training and skill building programmes targeting construction craftsmen, and environmental education programs and impactful conservation drives such as Coral Reef Rehabilitation and Mangrove Reforestation.
