Web portal for ceramics industry The Sri Lanka Ceramics Industry Web Portal, a web portal devoted to the ceramics industry of Sri Lanka, was launched last week. It projects the image of Sri Lanka's ceramic and porcelain products and will serve as a key information source for both international and local buyers, suppliers, manufacturers, investors, academics and others interested in the industry. The portal will also track and promote the growth of the industry through coverage of news features and industry trends and will provide a forum for discussion and information exchange. Specific site architectural features include a directory of manufacturers, raw material and inputs suppliers, investment opportunities, information on research and academic institutes associated with the ceramics industry, a calendar of up coming events, list of industry publications, related government and other industry links, and opinion poll on areas of industry interest and concern. The web portal was developed by the Ceramics Cluster and LankaCom Services, a subsidiary of Singapore Telecom International Ltd. Coordination of the development was done by The Competitiveness Initiative (a USAID-funded project). Dankotuwa Porcelain Limited is the first company to be showcased in the portal. The Cluster promotes the concepts of power through synergy, supply chain management and the establishment of centres for excellence. The portal will also provide links to other sites for those in the ceramic supply chain and the information will be regularly updated. Each month, a different porcelain or ceramic manufacturing company will be featured on this site. |
