This addendum concerns the notification of the Ministerial Decree No. 561 /2022 (2 pages, in Arabic) that gives the producers and importers a six-month transitional period to abide by the Egyptian Standard ES 4756-1 " Cement - Part 1: Composition, specifications and conformity
criteria for common cements." (48 pages, in Arabic).
