CDE ASIA

Reinventing sustainable sand solutions for construction, mining, and waste management industries

CDE Asia is the foremost force in innovative technology and offerings to solve the problem of growing sand shortages by actively replacing river sand with M-Sand. Founded in 2006, it now has a presence in 24 countries, and is striving to make sand a sustainable resource.

The company has so far set up 400 Manufactured-sand production units in Asia with 88,316 Tonnes of river sand saved per year, per plant, thereby creating the capacity to fulfill 5% of India’s sand requirement using its cloud mill network. It has created a premium position as a sand manufacturer, aggregator, and supplier in one of the fastest-growing industries in India. Doctor Sand has been introduced as the first sand brand in India that caters to all sand & aggregate needs of its customers, thereby redefining the sand market dominated by unreliable sand vendors, spurious sand, and the influence of the sand mafia.

The organization has created brand new resources of green aggregates from various waste streams- construction & demolition waste, coal overburden, dredged material from ports, lakes & dams, bottom ash, trommel fines from legacy waste processing, and others. It works with the sole motivation to discover untapped waste resources and provide technical support to convert them to construction aggregates.

Advanced wet processing technology from CDE Asia has revolutionized the mineral beneficiation sector by introducing compact, energy-efficient plants that can beneficiate a wide range of minerals and are also extremely eco-friendly. It has undertaken projects in iron ore processing, quartz beneficiation with color sorting, and bauxite processing and is continuously upgrading its processes for meeting the dynamic nature of feed material and the client’s specific requirements. 

The company has a globally accredited management system which helps them deliver on their promise of excellence at every stage.  It has ISO: 9001 and ISO: 14001 certifications for quality management and environmental management, respectively.  It also has been certified by the Builders Association of India and the Department of Scientific & Industrial Research (DSIR), Government of India.

CDE Asia is en route to achieving its vision to become the largest ESG-driven sand company and a preferred sourcing partner to the construction industry. Working across India and parts of Southeast Asia, CDE Asia’s breakthrough technology and sustainable solutions are a driving force in reinventing sustainable sand, waste management, and mineral beneficiation to usher in a future that’s smart, resilient, and sustainable.
