Due to the increase in fuel costs, the cost of delivered cement is more and more a function of rationalizing the most expeditious means to provide cement to customers. As the global cement industry continues to grow and develop, many cement companies frequently elect to augment sales revenues with third party produced cement. In this regard, Box has been requested by clients to develop cement supply logistic chains which have included marine delivered cement delivered by a variety of bulk and specialized cement carrier vessels, rail transported cement, common carrier, as well as client owned and operated overland truck deliveries of cement.
