YOUR SYMBOL OF QUALITY

The Blue Circle group of Companies is the largest cement organisation in the world. You will find our products available all over it, from Ascension Island to Iceland, from the United Kingdom to New Zealand, and even accompanying expeditions to the Antarctic.

All our products carry their brand name, and the Blue Circle appears on the bag or drum to identify them with our organisation. The Blue Circle symbol is today known far and wide in building industries and has impressed itself throughout the world as a criterion of quality—quality based on the accumulated experience of over 100 years.

At the disposal of the organisation are complete scientific-research laboratories and testing stations. Night and day, at every works, chemists are employed in carrying out tests at each stage of manufacture to ensure that every ton produced not only complies with the requirements of the British Standard Specification for Portland Cement, but exceeds them by a generous margin.

Consignments are sampled and tested, with a reserve sample put aside as a check against any possible complaint. A test certificate officially endorsed by the Company is supplied to the buyer, on request, with each consignment if he so desires.

All these stringent precautions apply to the Tiger Cement you buy in Malaya. Made at Rawang in Selangor, Tiger Brand Portland Cement is now known and used throughout the length and breadth of Malaya. Every bag carries our Trademark: — plus the familiar Blue Circle symbol which is your guarantee of quality.

One of the largest industrial undertakings in the Federation of Malaya, Malayan Cement Limited is a member of the Blue Circle family and it justifiably proud of its product Tiger Brand Portland Cement which you may use with every confidence.

BUY THE BEST BUY TIGER CEMENT

What is Portland Cement?

The manufacture of Portland Cement is a comparatively recent development in the world. Some form of cement was used to build the Pyramids in Egypt as far back as about 4000 B.C. The dome of the Pantheon, still standing, provides another early example. These "cements" were probably more akin to Plaster of Paris, as we know it today, than a modern Portland Cement.

John Smeaton, the builder of the original Eddystone lighthouse in England in 1756. was the first to rind that clay mixed with limestone and fired made a good hydraulic cement. It was he who declared that such a cement was equal in solidity and durability to the best marketable Portland Stone. In 1824 Joseph Aspdin, of Leeds in England, found that by mixing finely pulverised chalk and clay, and burning the mixture at a very high temperature, he could produced clinker which, when ground, had setting properties if used with water, sand and stone to make "concrete". When this material itself had set and hardened, it resembled Portland Stone in colour and texture, so Aspdin called it "Portland" cement.

This is the humble origin of Portland Cement which is now known and used throughout the world. Its manufacture has become a scientific process employing all kinds of highly specialised machinery, but the essentials regarding raw materials remain the same.

Cement has become a commodity on which our modern standard of living is greatly dependent. Building, constructional engineering, road-making and bridging, air and sea-port planning, water supplies, hydraulic power, electricity, irrigation schemes, canalization, transport over land or sea and in the air; all demand CEMENT.

The old-fashioned conception was that concrete was a material suited only for heavy undertakings—harbours, docks, foundations, dams—but limitless horizons have been opened up by modern design and enterprise. For grandeur and a flowing beauty, for strength, durability and economy, in all fields of building and construction from simple fencing to a mighty dam, from garden path to transcontinental highway, from pre-cast building unit to the highest skyscraper it is the modern Portland Cement which helps to create the concrete on which we all depend.

This is true in Malaya where Tiger Brand Portland Cement is to be seen on practically every new job site. Look for the familiar yellow and blue sign—Tiger Cement Used Here—and watch Malaya build.

How Tiger Brand Portland Cement is made

RAW MATERIALS

The materials used for the manufacture of Portland Cement may be limestone and shale, as at Rawang, or chalk and clay. Limestone is quarried at Rawang by drilling and blasting, is loaded by electrically-driven shovels into huge dumper lorries and transported to the crushers which reduce the stone in size to approximately 1" diameter—convenient for handling in the ball mill. Shale is dug at Batu Arang and brought, with the coal for firing the kilns, in railway trucks to the cement works.

MAKING CEMENT SLURRY

Regulated quantities of crushed limestone and shale are taken from the raw materials store And fed continuously into the tubemills where the materials are ground with water by steel balls to emerge as a well-mixed slurry.

SLURRY STORAGE

The cement slurry is pumped to large storage tanks where it is kept agitated with compressed air. Slurry is frequently tested and adjustments are made to ensure that the fineness, calcium carbonate and water contents are correct.

KILN FEED

Slurry is pumped from the slurry tanks into storage tanks from which it is fed into the back end of the kilns by revolving scoops, the amount being regulated by the official in charge who is called the "Burner".

BURNING

Our two rotary kilns consist of revolving steel cylinders, lined with refractory bricks. Their longitudinal axis is slightly inclined to permit the passage of the slurry along them. While the slurry is entering the upper end of the kilns pulverised coal is being blown in at the firing end, thus drying, decarbonating and calcining the slurry, which at a temperature around 2500 degrees Fahrenheit is transformed into "clinker". The kilns revolve continuously during this process, the rate of rotation is variable and controlled by the "Burner" to ensure regularity and evenness of burning.

CLINKER STORAGE

The red-hot clinker, which afterwards looks like a mountain of small grey marbles, then passes into coolers from which it is transferred by conveyor to the clinker store for completion of cooling.

GRINDING CEMENT

Clinker is passed along another conveyor belt to the mills where it is ground to become Portland Cement. As clinker is fed into the mills about 5% of Gypsum is added to prevent flash setting of the cement. Portland Cement must have a fineness or specific surface area of not less than 2250 square centimetres per gramme.

PACKING AND STORING

The finished cement is pumped into huge storage silos from which it is fed to the packing plant where it is automatically filled into 112 lb. paper sacks. The automatic packer fills, weighs, seals and discharges the cement in these paper sacks on to another conveyor belt which carries it for loading on to lorries or rail trucks and despatch to our customers.

The Company . . .

FINANCE

The Company was registered on the 5th June, 1950, with an authorised capital of $10 Million and our Prospectus of the 11th April, 1951, provided for the issue of shares to the value of $8,850,000. In the meantime, costs of labour and prices of materials had risen so it was necessary to take advantage of a loan amounting to $2,480,000 offered by the Associated Portland Cement Manufacturers Limited. This was secured by a 5 per cent. Debenture repayable over a period not exceeding 10 years from the commencement of production in 1953.

Manufacture and distribution started in August of that year with a planned capacity of 100,000 tons per annum. This was comfortably exceeded each year and it soon became apparent from the reception and continued consumption of Tiger cement that planning for extensions must be put in hand. From the outset the Company prudently maintained a policy of setting aside from earnings reserves which could be used for such expansion. It was estimated that $7 1/4 Million would be required to finance the cost of new equipment to double production capacity and provide sufficient working capital for our increased scale of operations. Of this sum, no less than $3 1/2 Million was available from our reserves for ploughing back into the expansion programme. The remainder was found by increasing our authorised capital to $13,275,000. Shares were offered to members in proportion to their existing holdings to a value of $4,425,000. The confidence of the Company and our Shareholders in the future was demonstrated when these were fully subscribed.

It is interesting to note that our current capital is subscribed by some 940 Shareholders of whom 80 per cent, reside in Malaya, the actual figures being 445 in the Federation, 300 in Singapore and 195 overseas.

EXPANSION

In the intervening period between August, 1953, to the end of January, 1959, our original 315 feet Vickers Rotary Kiln produced just over 555,000 tons of Tiger brand Portland Cement working most of the time to over 100 per cent, of its rated capacity. It has since had a well-earned rest during which it was completely overhauled and modified to increase its annual productive rate.

Planning and execution of the new extensions has been carried out by our own Works Staff in conjunction with the Associated Portland Cement Manufacturers Limited. The new Rotary Kiln is 375 feet in length, has a greater overall diameter, is of all welded construction and is carried on six tyres. Clinker from it is cooled in the latest type grate cooler, supplied by Constantin, allowing for maximum heat recovery from the clinker. Consequently the kiln can be run with very high efficiency. The kiln plant is fully instrumented with the latest types of electronic instruments, recorders, etc., and provision has been made to adapt these to fully automatic control.

Both rotary kilns have been fitted with the most modern high efficiency cyclonic dust collecting equipment which is additional to the dust arrestment devices already fitted within the kilns themselves.

In order to provide the extra slurry required for two kiln production the 800 h.p. tube mill previously used for cement has been converted to a wet mill and new slurry mixing and storage tanks have been erected.

Two new mills of F.L. Smidth design have been installed to grind the clinker for cement production. These mills are powered by 1200 h.p. synchronous motors and carry a charge of 72 tons of steel balls. With an output of 55 tons of cement per hour, they will be adequate to deal with all seasonal variations in the pattern of trade.

The Company . . .

RAW MATERIALS

Finally, further equipment has been put into service in the quarry in order to provide the additional raw materials which are required for our current production of 250,000 tons of Tiger brand Portland Cement per year.

Some idea of the magnitude of our operations may be gained from our present rate of raw material consumption:

Limestone 320,000 Tons per annum. Shale 105,000 Tons per annum. Electricity 30,000,000 Units per annum. Coal 85,000 Tons per annum. Gypsum 13,000 Tons per annum. Paper 5,000,000 4-ply Sacks per annum

Only the last two of these items are imported. The remainder are produced in Malaya and the actual raw materials themselves are hauled to Rawang by the Malayan Railway. It may be truly said that our industry benefits many others in Malaya.

WELFARE

The Company believes in having a happy family. To this end, free housing is provided for the majority of the Staff and a large number of the Workmen. All houses receive free electric light and water. A dispensary is maintained at the Works to provide medical treatment for minor injuries and this is visited weekly by a qualified practitioner for consultations with Workers or their dependents. For more serious cases the Company pays the hospital bills of its employees.

We have recently opened the "Blue Circle Club" which provides many recreational facilities amongst which are Billiards, Darts, Mah-jong, an excellent Football field and two floodlit Badminton courts. A Club for the Staff has also been opened and membership is open to local residents. The amenities of the "Portland Club" include a floodlit Tennis court.

OUR FAMILY

The Company employs members of all the main races seen in Malaya including Malays, Southern Indians, Chinese, Sikhs, Eurasians and Europeans. All live together in complete harmony with respect and tolerance for each other.

As far as possible, "key" jobs are shared between Malay, Indian and Chinese workers to allow each group to enjoy their religious and national holidays, and every encouragement for advancement is given to Malays.

The Company . . .

DISTRIBUTION

RAIL

Malayan Railways carry the major portion of the Company's production of Tiger cement to all points on their network of stations throughout the Federation. Day in, day out, and practically every night, Tiger cement travels speedily to destinations North or South of Rawang under their care. It is our common aim to deliver to a job site in any part of the Federation within 48 hours of receipt of order.

This entails a great deal of organisation and the Company gratefully acknowledges the co-operation and efficiency given them by Malayan Railways which has enabled us to raise Rail Deliveries from 8,000 tons per month in 1958 to its present total of 17,000 tons per month. Between us, we hope to increase this still further by the end of 1959.

BULK

Tiger cement will soon be available to customers in the Kuala Lumpur area in bulk, carried by special road transporters direct to job sites where it will be pumped into portable silos ready for use.

This method of delivery will benefit our customers by a direct reduction in cost, and indirectly because —

1. Deterioration of cement caused by rain or high humidity will cease.

2. The necessity of erecting site storage for bagged cement will be obviated.

3. Site pilferage will be prevented.

4. Site movement of cement will be eliminated, resulting in a reduction of handling and labour charges.

The Company . . .

BULK PACKING AND STORAGE DEPOT

The Company plans to operate a new depot in the North to increase the efficiency of our service to customers there. Tiger cement will be carried in bulk to this new depot by Malayan Railways. It will be automatically discharged and elevated from their hopper waggons into storage silos, pass through an automatic paper bag filling machine from which packed cement will travel along a retractable conveyor belt directly to the furthest loading point on a lorry, where it will drop into its loaded position without further handling.

COLLECTION EX WORKS BY ROAD

The existing lorry loading arrangements at Rawang Works will shortly be modified and modernised. A retractable conveyor belt will also be installed here to serve customers' lorries collecting Tiger cement by road. This will enable us to accept and load a greatly increased number of road vehicles each day. Speedier loading—5 tons in 8 minutes- will cut lorry waiting time to an absolute minimum.

THE FUTURE

The Company is currently investigating the potentiality of a combined rail and road service which would enable us to offer bulk delivery to larger job sites throughout the Federation.

By this method, Tiger cement would be carried in bulk rail waggons to a railhead nearest to the site, pumped into a bulk road transporter which would deliver and discharge it into a silo ready for use. The maintenance of a continuous shuttle service would enable us to deliver large quantities of cement to a job site every 24 hours for the duration of a contract.

The modernisation of our distribution system, together with other modifications at the Works, will cost the Company an additional $2 Million and will increase our productive capacity to 300,000 tons within about twelve months. This will enable Malayan Cement Limited to keep ahead of demand and be in a position to more than meet the full cement requirements of the Federation of Malaya. Our policy is to "Grow with Malaya" and further expansion will be carefully planned and undertaken when necessary to implement this intention.

SALES

We have five major Distributors, whose names are household words throughout Malaya, and a host of appointed Dealers who ensure that Tiger Cement is always available to our many customers when and where it is wanted. The fact that Tiger cement is to be seen in Godowns from Alor Star or Kota Bahru down to Johore Bahru any and every day is so common place that sight is lost of the immense amount of physical handling and work necessary to bring this about. The Company gratefully acknowledges the loyalty and support given them by their Dealers and Distributors and records below all their names and the areas in which they operate so that our Customers may know where to obtain Tiger Cement and appreciate the size of operations necessary to cover our sales area which is well over FIVE HUNDRED Miles in length.
