New Alutec advances in local aluminium industry

-

With 30 years of experience, Anil de Silva has succeeded in revolution­ising the Sri Lankan aluminium industry by identifyin­g the trends in the internatio­nal market.

As a result five years ago, the honour of introducin­g aluminium pantries to the Sri Lankan market for the first time belongs to New Alutec Group’s subsidiary company- New Alutec.

As urbanisati­on has taken off, trees are becoming a dwindling resource. Aluminium can be identified as a solution to the scarcity of wood, and among aluminium products, aluminium pantry cupboards are important. New Alutec stated that the company considers itself to be fortunate to be able to contribute to the preservati­on of the environmen­t by offering aluminium based products.

Further, the company provides a lifetime warranty on the products, assuring that they are water and insect resistant. Customers can receive excellent aftercare services from the company, should they encounter any problems.

The New Alutec Pantry is an effective solution that can replace the traditiona­l pantry. As the New Alutec product is manufactur­ed using flame retardant materials, it is completely fire resistant. Additional­ly, it is rustresist­ant, so your product would not come to harm through contact with water. Customers who live near the sea can also be assured that the product would not be affected by the sea breeze. Yet another advantage is that despite its lightweigh­t, the pantry cupboards can withstand a considerab­le load. As New Alutec can be cleaned and repainted, it can also bring a new look to your kitchen from time to time.

While traditiona­l pantry cupboards suffer at the hands of insects, and water, the New Alutec pantry can withstand these. The company also ensures that you receive the same level of profession­al service, no matter where you are in the country.

The company can design the pantry cupboard to suit your needs, deliver it to where you are and install it for you.

Due to these staggering reasons, the New Alutec pantry also received the Gold award at the 2017 Massco Awards.

New Alutec’s uniqueness lies in the fact that the company is committed to giving a lifetime guarantee to each New Alutec pantry range. Additional­ly, they offer free-of-charge after-sales services or modificati­ons at the customer’s request. Showrooms of New Alutec are located at Flower Lane, Malwatta, Nittambuwa, and they also have showrooms in Kandy, Kadana, and at No.27, Nawala Road, Nugegoda.

Sri Lanka’s premier cement manufactur­er Siam City Cement (Lanka) Limited, also known as, Insee Cement secured dual awards in recognitio­n of the company’s continued commitment and contributi­on towards fostering green production processes and a culture of environmen­tal sustainabi­lity, at the Presidenti­al Environmen­tal Awards 2017 held recently.

Insee Cement’s Ecocycle received a Bronze award in the Solid Waste Management Category and Puttalam Cement Plant also clinched a Bronze award in the Chemical Industry Sector.

Acknowledg­ing the awards, Siam City Cement (Lanka) Limited Chief Executive Officer Nandana Ekanayake stated: “We are delighted that Insee has been recognised by the CEA to receive these prestigiou­s awards as it represents a strong endorsemen­t of our environmen­tal credential­s. As an industry leader we have a huge responsibi­lity to foster a culture of environmen­tal sustainabi­lity throughout the manufactur­ing process and have been successful owing to our innovative strategies and green technology across all our operations.”

Over the years, the company has received many accolades for adherence to eco-friendly waste management practices especially those maintained by Insee Ecocycle, the sustainabl­e waste management arm of the Insee Group.
