About Red Hills
Red Hills (Sengundram) is where the Periyapalayam road meets the GNT Road (NH16) and the Chennai Bypass — the natural unloading point for North Chennai's batching plants and precast yards. Most loads we send to the city pass through here, which makes it the most economical Chennai-side drop for aggregate and sand.
Building work in Red Hills: RMC and precast cluster along the GNT Road and the Chennai Bypass; Residential layouts and houses around the Red Hills junction.
