BUET's (Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology) students of Civil Engineering Department had the opportunity to visit INSEE Cement's Narayanganj factory. This educational field trip provided 20 students and 4 faculty members with an insightful, firsthand experience of advanced cement production processes and sustainable construction practices.
During this industrial visit, INSEE Cement Bangladesh hosted interactive sessions that covered an overview of the cement plant, Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) demonstrations, and an in-depth look into the manufacturing process, cement technology, and product excellence. Additionally, the sessions included discussions on logistics and supply chain management, providing students with a comprehensive understanding of the operations. A key topic of discussion during the visit was INSEE Cement's commitment to reducing CO2 emissions through its innovative products and processes.

This experience effectively bridged the gap between classroom theory and real-world applica- tions, allowing students to gain valuable practical knowledge in sustainable construc- tion and industry innovations. The visit further solidified INSEE Cement's commitment to fostering future leaders in the construction and engineering sectors.
