Simba Cement Price in Kenya — Portland & Pozzolana

Simba Portland Pozzolana 32.5R is a blended cement that combines Portland clinker with pozzolanic material, making it stronger and more durable than traditional Portland cement. It's a popular choice for structural work and has gained significant market share in the past five years.

Current Pricing Structure

Simba 32.5R is currently priced at KSh 795 per 50kg bagged unit, sitting slightly above generic grades but below pure Portland 42.5N. For pallet orders (1,260 bags = 63 tonnes), bulk pricing brings the per-bag cost down to approximately KSh 750–760, depending on location and current demand.

Why Contractors Prefer Simba

Three reasons stand out: first, the pozzolanic blend reduces long-term heat generation, important for large concrete pours. Second, it offers excellent durability against carbonation and chloride attack, critical in coastal and urban environments. Third, the cost premium over basic cement is minimal while the performance gains are significant.

Bulk & Tanker Rates

Orders above 50 tonnes qualify for tanker delivery. Loose cement (pneumatic tanker, 26 tonnes) costs approximately KSh 8,500–9,200 per tonne depending on location, representing a 12–18% saving versus bagged purchases when you factor in handling and labor.

Comparison with Bamburi & Savannah

Simba is typically 1–3% cheaper than Bamburi's structural grades on a per-tonne basis, while Savannah sits 5–8% lower. For most structural work in urban areas, Simba offers the best value — cost-effective, durable, and widely available across Kenya.
