Background
A company that uses sensor technology to track cement stocks has joined one of the biggest global bodies in the cement industry. The World Cement Association accepted SiloConnect as an Associate Corporate Member, adding a digital solutions firm to its international network.
SiloConnect builds small sensors that sit on customer silos and send live stock level readings to an online platform. Cement producers can log in and see exactly how much material is sitting at any delivery point, without sending anyone to physically check.
Instead of reacting to demand shortages at the last moment, the system enables producers to pre-plan for their shipments. Better planning means fewer emergency orders, lower costs, and smoother day-to-day operations.
WCA’s chief executive said tools that give better visibility into supply chains are becoming more important as the industry moves toward more digital ways of working. He said the association is glad to have SiloConnect’s expertise within its membership.
SiloConnect’s chief executive said joining the WCA opens a new chapter for the company, and that the goal remains helping cement producers run their logistics networks more efficiently using live data.
The company already works with some of the biggest names in cement globally and is active in over 30 countries. The membership is expected to help it connect with more producers and push its technology further into mainstream cement operations.
