Adani plays major role in Chenab bridge works
Ahmedabad: Adani Cement on Wednesday said it has played a pivotal role in the construction of the world's highest railway arch bridge at Chenab in Jammu and Kashmir -- a landmark of India's infrastructure ambition.
Adani Cement, comprising Ambuja Cements and ACC and a key part of the diversified Adani Portfolio, was the lead cement supplier in the project with 65,000 metric tonnes — making it a key contributor to the structural backbone of the bridge.
The cement supplied was Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) 43 Grade, known for its high strength, durability, and consistent quality, making it ideal for complex and large-scale infrastructure exposed to extreme climatic and geological conditions, informed the company.
'It is a matter of immense pride for us to be part of a project that not only redefines engineering boundaries but also contributes to national integration. At Adani Cement, we believe that every bag of cement carries the weight of the nation's progress,' said Vinod Bahety, CEO–Cement Business, Adani Group.
Spanning the formidable terrain of Jammu and Kashmir, the Chenab Bridge is a triumph of design, execution, and resilience.

Adani Cement, CREDAI Join Hands To Boost Sustainable, High-Quality Construction
Ahmedabad: Adani Cement and the Confederation of Real Estate Developers' Associations of India (CREDAI) on Friday joined hands to advance sustainable and high-quality construction in the country. The strategic alliance brings together Adani Cement and the country's apex body of private real estate developers, aiming to benefit both organisations and the broader construction industry. Under this collaboration, Adani Cement will leverage CREDAI's nationwide network of more than 13,000 developers to strengthen its B2B outreach, while CREDAI members benefit from Adani Cement's industry-leading solutions. The signing took place in the presence of Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant, during the CREDAI Governing Council Meeting held in Panjim, attended by industry body office bearers and leading developers from across the country. "Our exclusive partnership with CREDAI is a testament to Adani Cement's commitment to nation-building through sustainable and innovative construction. By joining hands with CREDAI, we aim to accelerate the adoption of world-class cement products and green concrete solutions in India's real estate sector," said Vinod Bahety, CEO - Cement Business, Adani Group. He further stated that this collaboration aligns perfectly with our vision of building a greener, smarter urban future - one where Adani Cement's technical expertise and CREDAI's on-ground experience come together to create stronger, safer, and more sustainable structures. The industry body members will have the advantage of enhancing their project quality in various parameters, including availability of Adani Cement's Innovative Concrete Solutions; and availability of Adani's diverse Ready-Mix Concrete (RMX) and advanced concrete solutions customised to varied requirements - from standard grades to specialised mixes.

The announcement comes at a pivotal time when India's cement consumption patterns are undergoing a significant shift. Traditionally, individual home builders (IHBs) in the retail segment constituted the largest share of cement usage, accounting for roughly 60 per cent of demand. However, rapid urbanisation and infrastructural growth have fuelled a surge in B2B demand - large real estate developments and public infrastructure projects are now driving cement consumption at an unprecedented pace. Government-led construction of highways, metro systems, and smart cities, alongside private sector high-rise developments, is contributing to the 'non-trade' segment's momentum, gradually balancing the once IHB-dominated market.
