Mysore Cements, Heidelberg Cement Group

Mysore Cements is part of the Heidelberg Cement Group and we are located in the Tumkr district of Karnataka. The pin code is Tumk R 572211 if you are looking for us on a map. We are right in the heart of the cement belt. The facility is large and there is always a layer of fine dust on everything. That’s just the nature of the cement business. We have big machines and lots of trucks. It’s loud and busy from the moment we open the gates. Most of us here have worked in this industry for decades. We know the sound the equipment makes when it’s running right. It’s a lot of physical labor and staying alert. We don't have time for fancy talk. We just focus on the production and the logistics. The sun in Karnataka can be brutal, so we stay hydrated and keep the work moving. There is a sense of pride in seeing the trucks leave the yard full of bags. We are a big part of the local economy in the Tumkur area. People here know the name Mysore Cements well. Our office is functional, with old files and a lot of maps on the walls. We are just regular people making a product that helps build things. It’s a hard job, but it’s what we know. We stick to our schedules and try to get home on time. It's a real, hardworking environment.
