China Runji Cement Inc.'s Second
Production Line Exceeds Expectations
ANHUI, China, Jan. 12, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)
-- China Runji Cement Inc. (OTCBB:CRJI)
("CRJI" or "the Company"),
a leading producer and distributor of
cement in Anhui Province of China, today
announced that its second cement clinker
production line has successfully broken
through its designed capacity of 2,500
tons per day and produced 2,700 tons per
day and 2,800 tons per day in November
and December 2008, respectively, to meet
the growing market demand.
Meanwhile, CRJI's first cement production
line, which was also designed to produce
2,500 tons per day, successfully achieved
its production target of 1 million tons
in 2008.
Surpassing the original capacity of the
second production line was made possible
thanks to a combination of technological,
technical, and organizational factors
within CRJI. With proper operation workflow
and facility management, boosting the
production capacity beyond the original
limit will not harm the production line.
The quality of the cement clinker produced
from the second production line has also
proven to be in full compliance with Chinese
national cement quality standards. Following
CRJI's compliance with National GB/T 19001-2000
and ISO 9001:2000 standard attestations
in 2006, the Company undertook many effective
measures to ensure product quality while
increasing production capacity. These
included installation of restrictive raw
material supply systems, a highly-standardized
production process supervision system,
international advanced cement production
techniques, and finished goods quality
control system.
"In 2008 CRJI has proven its capability
to increase production and enhance profitability.
The ability to increase the output of
our second production line beyond anticipated
capacity should allow us to continue making
competitive, high-quality products while
reacting quickly to changes in the market,"
Runji's Chairman and CEO, Mr. Zhao Shouren
stated. "In response to the growing
demand in our market, we are taking many
initiatives to increase our production
capacity. We engaged over 30 qualified,
motivated and experienced technicians
and workers to further strengthen our
technical operation team in 2008. By increasing
the capacity of our two production lines,
we are able to further reduce fixed production
costs and meet increasing demand among
our customers. Despite the global slowdown,
we expect to continue 2008's strong growth
into 2009."
