INSEE Cement, has entered into an agreement with the Ranaviru Seva Authority under the Ministry of Defence to provide cement at a concessionary price to families of war veterans who were disabled or killed in combat.

This is part of a broader initiative by INSEE Cement, launched earlier this year, to provide cement bags at a concessionary price to all Tri-armed forces personnel, in recognition of their services to Sri Lanka. This latest phase particularly reflects INSEE Cement’s deep appreciation for the invaluable service and commitment and sacrifices of Sri Lanka’s veteran war heroes and their families.

A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was signed by the Ministry of Defence Ranaviru Seva Authority Chairman Major General Nandana Senadeera (retired) and INSEE Cement Sri Lanka Chairman Nandana Ekanayake. INSEE Cement was also represented by Channel Development and External Affairs Head Chandana Nanayakkara, and Marketing Head Gayani Perera.

“We at INSEE Cement deeply appreciate the invaluable service of Sri Lanka’s war heroes. We hope this concessionary cement will help these families to embark on construction projects that are important to them, help them rebuild their lives and contribute to their communities,” says INSEE Cement Chairman Nandana Ekanayake. “It is a clear demonstration of our INSEE commitment to care for our communities. We seek to empower and uplift these deserving individuals by providing them with essential resources to enhance their quality of life.”

Under the agreement, each family will be eligible for a maximum of 300 INSEE Sanstha cement bags at a concessionary price. Those families who wish to avail themselves of this initiative can reach out to the Ranaviru Seva Authority to secure a coupon that they can redeem for the concessionary price of cement at the time of purchase.

The Chairman of the Ranaviru Seva Authority thanked INSEE Cement for its invaluable support. “We salute INSEE Cement for their dedication to the well-being of our war veterans and for standing by them in their journey of resilience and progress. This generous gesture honours the sacrifices and contributions of our brave heroes. It will empower our war veterans and their families to rebuild their lives and contribute to the betterment of our communities.”
