Dominican Republic: Cementos Progreso has launched ‘Amigos Progreso,’ a guided tour programme that opens the doors to its cement plant in San Pedro de Macorís, one of the largest in Caribbean, and its concrete plant. The initiative aims to familiarise visitors with the cement and concrete manufacturing process, quality controls, sustainability practices and the role the sector plays in the country’s economy. The programme began with the participation of engineering students from the Technological Institute of Santo Domingo and professionals from the Diploma in Management and Sustainability from the Ibero-American University (Unibe), who visited the Los Pinos concrete plant to learn about quality control and sustainable construction.
