The world economy has shown signs of slowing down in recent times. Despite the downward trend, many emerging African countries continue with their infrastructural development programmes, which has sparked high demands for cement.
While this is a welcome news for the cement industry in Africa, it is a source of concern for the environment. The cement industry is responsible for 5% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions released into the atmosphere.
In the last two decades, many emerging African countries like South Africa, Nigeria, Ghana, Angola and Zambia have placed environmental sustainability high on the agenda of their economic growth and development objectives. Therefore, if the cement industry wants to see continued growth, there needs to be a different approach to the way they manufacture their products.
By implication, the cement industry in these emerging African economies must find the right designs and products to meet or exceed current and future emissions regulations. This will be vital to the success of the industry in the many years to come.
Since the 1990s, Envirox under the distributorship of Nederman through joint ventureship with Sturrock and Robson Group, has been providing services to top cement manufacturing companies all over Africa. Envirox prides itself with the successful installation and maintenance of Nederman dust filters across the continent.

About Envirox and Nederman
In 2012 Envirox was established in Johannesburg focusing on industrial air filtration. It was during this time that Envirox acquired the Nederman distribution. Since then, Envirox has been involved in the installation of filtration systems in South Africa’s top industrial, automotive and mining companies.
Nederman was first represented in South Africa in the 1990s by the Sturrock and Robson Group (S&R). This representation started as a joint venture between the two companies and was known as Nederman South Africa.
This joint venture was later dissolved and HSE solutions was established (a division of S&R), focusing on Personal Protective Equipment. Nederman distribution remained in the S&R Group and HSE became the distributor for Nederman until moving over to Envirox.
