Ohorongo Cement is distributed in 50 kg bags, 2 ton bags and bulk tankers. Bulk storage silos should be dry and vapor tight. Cement bags should be protected from moisture and kept dry, preferably off ground by means of pallets or timber, preventing moisture contact.
Bags should be stored away from direct sunlight, or should be covered by a roof or sheeting. Stacking should be kept to a maximum of two pallets high to avoid compaction of cement bags at the bottom.
Cement bags should be stored on an elevated surface (wooden or plastic pallet): – not directly on a concrete or natural surface to protect the bags from dampness rising from the ground.
Normal temperatures and pressures do not affect the product. Personnel working with wet or dry material should wear safety clothing to avoid eye and skin contact and follow health and safety instructions.
Always wear protective clothing to prevent skin irritation, dermatitis or caustic burning, which may result from prolonged contact with cement as cement and cement paste are highly alkaline. Avoid contact with eyes. If the product comes into contact with the eyes, immediately wash out thoroughly with water. Medical attention may be necessary. The use of dust masks is recommended. To avoid back injuries when lifting cement bags, bend the knees while keeping the back upright. Keep out of reach of children.
Depending on storage, cement can maintain its properties for up to 6 months. Aft er 6 months, cement hydration will be infl uenced inducing negative infl uences on strength gain and high strength concrete.
