Honouring the INSEE brand promise
Setting the Local Industry Benchmark to International Standards
Confidence builds trust, and one of our key commitments over the years has been honoring and delivering on the INSEE brand promise to our consumers by first and foremost ensuring our products, processes and plants adhere to the top most international standards.
At INSEE Cement, we understand the importance of globally established regulations in a landscape where the consumer voice is becoming more prominent, and consumer choices are based on quality as well as a brand’s commitment to sustainable development and corporate responsibility.
Integrated management system (IMS)
Anchored to the strong foundation of International Standards, INSEE Cement has implemented our very own Integrated Management System (IMS), which seamlessly dovetails all of INSEE’s standards management systems into one complete framework. This has enabled us to evolve into a more intelligent, advanced and improved organization working towards unified objectives using the simple, yet effective ‘Plan – Do – Check – Act’ cycle.
