Myanmar will produce fire clay bricks which can withstand over
1,250 degrees of heat for the country's industries.
A fire clay brick factory of state-run Myanma Ceramic Industries
(MCI) was opened here Tuesday to produce 900 tons of such high heat
duty fire clay bricks annually, the official newspaper New Light of
Myanmar reported Wednesday.
The factory, which cost over 3.55 million U.S. dollars, was built
in May 1997 to produce import substitute goods for industries in the
country to reduce foreign exchange expenditure.
